It was the last chance to make a painting today outside with the sun going down around 6:30 now the days are getting shorter and shorter. I was stuck in all day recording educational videos, the system actually crashed for the whole university this afternoon, but they brought it back up too late for my live class. So they got everything per-recorded, jokes and all. I set it up with a beach background and wore sunglasses for a moment to complete the virtual classroom illusion.
This painting started out simple enough, and it looks fast and easy, but there are a ton of elements packed in, each with a complex light and shadow effect. The railing is the front steps of our building and the structure behind it is a bus stop. In the background, the grocery store that used to be a Steinberg's.
