VIRTUAL PAINTOUT AND FULLERTON RAILROAD BUILDINGS

VIRTUAL PAINTOUT

The 'VIRTUAL PAINTOUT' (http://virtualpaintout.blogspot.com/) was over in Belfast Ireland. There was so much green and the country is beautiful, lush and rural. I enjoyed my visit and appreciate Bill Guffey's blog site and the work he does to pull this off every month. If you haven't tried it you are missing a fun challenge.

Ivy and I walked to the Fullerton Train Station to sketch today, because I had stopped near this area a few days ago and wanted to come back to do more sketching. These buildings are so textural and I am continuing to use the art set with crayon, pencil, oil pastel and felt pens. It’s a bit of a challenge using unfamiliar tools.

FULLERTON RAILWAYS

I stopped along the railroad tracks to take a break and sketch this group of buildings.  All I had in the car were crayons.  I don't know what the people were doing in these businesses but there was a lot of yelling going on.  I could hear them even from my, across the railroad tracks, 2 streets and a field away, parked car.

This is a view of Brea and maybe La Habra Hts. from the parking lot of a favorite hardware store I frequent.  When you live in a home there is always something to repair.  That's my excercise for today.
