The final drawing is nearly done....it's a detailed pencil drawing on very beautiful paper which has incorporated all of the elements I have been working on....this too will become the property of the Berkshire Athenaeum when the project is finished. Because so many of my reference photos have been taken at different times of the day and different seasons, I find I've been returning to the site to do more on scene sketching. The curbs and street lines have been throwing me off a bit, but I think I have a handle on them now. But even more important are the cast shadows....they have to be consistent...can't have a 10 am shadow on the front and a 3 pm shadow on the side. So that is what I'm working on now and very soon the final drawing will be posted.
A schedule has been arranged....I hope to see many visitors while I'm painting. A display will be set up that will provide details of the entire process. I'll be located on the main floor, not far from the front entrance.
My Painting Schedule at the library during MAY
Mondays and Thursdays 10 a.m. - 12 noon

I expect the painting to be completed during May, but if not, the same schedule will flow into June.
