Plein Air– Something Different

At last Thursday's outing with SWOPA, we were painting at the Cincinnati Museum Center.

Three museums– Cincinnati History, Cincinnati Children's and Cincinnati Natural History, make this location home.

I thought I would try something different , knowing the breadth of the view at this location, and put two 6" x 8" panels together for a panoramic view:

Sesonal Adjustments– Like Cordwood

The canoes were stacked like cordwood outside the Morgan Canoe Livery this winter. Just waiting on weather like we're having now, I'm sure they're making multiple trips per day, down the Little Miami.
