Happy New Year

First Presbyterian, Charlotte, 9½x7" watercolor

I’ve decided to turn over a new leaf this year, so I put kale on my shopping list. I also have more plein air painting on my list. In spite of the mild December weather here in North Carolina, a full docket of painting commissions allowed me time to paint outside only once. Above is the small watercolor I did in Charlotte in mid-December after I had delivered some artwork to a customer who attends this church. First Presbyterian has its own parking lot, so, in spite of a Panthers game that day, parking was a non-issue in downtown Charlotte.
