I was visiting one of my dearest art buddies who had just moved to Richmond, VA. He is a fabulous clay artist and this was his first house EVER! I wanted to give him something special from my heart to celebrate this amazing transformation in his life so I did a house portrait for him. I love the classic architectural lines of this totally charming bungalow. Watercolor was PERFECT for this piece. It gave the more structured lines a fluid, colorful, and joyful expression. Just what I wanted. I worked outside sitting on a curb across the street. I was oblivious to my surroundings. When I had completed the piece, I realized some neighbors had gathered and I received two more commissions. It was a really good Plein Air Day.
