Painting Trees and getting Ready for Lincoln

After dinner and going for a walk with my girlfriend ( The Woman) I began painting the trees that block the front of the GAR Hall - there has been a push to have them cut down as they block the facade of the building. I took the photos for the painting in early spring just as the trees were budding so they are fully leafed out and you can still see the building- also the play of the shadows falling against the wall will be interesting.
Also printing some "Tropics" for the Lincoln show this weekend and the two year anniversary of the blog. As I initially got the idea to start it in Lincoln.
