Plein Air– Clifton Heights

Bellevue Hill Pavilion
12" x 16", Oil on Canvas
06/2015

This could have been my throw-back-thursday entry on Facebook. Wait a minute, this was painted on Thursday. Bellevue Hill Park is in Cincinnati at the end of Ohio Avenue in the Clifton Heights neighborhood. My old college stomping grounds.

The Park Board built this wonderful Art Deco pavilion designed by architect R. Carl Freund in 1955. Intended to be a location for outdoor dances, it features pierced cantilevered concrete roof structures in stylized organic shapes.
