Plein Air at the Capitol Building Yesterday. Sort of a progress set from real subject to an almost finished product. All thats left to do are some highlights and details. It was a fairly hot day with temps near 90F but I painted in the shade of a very large oak tree. Just after noon so the shadows were not exactly where I wanted them. I'll go back later in the day next time. This is the old historic Capitol building. The newer statehouse may be on my painting agenda as well, at a later date.
