I was headed back to the RS Hannah Gallery on Thursday to check out the view from the upstairs balcony, which someone said had really good views of Main Street. I stopped to chat with Debra Joy Groesser and admire the painting she was doing of a house behind the gallery, when I got distracted by the light on this window on a neighboring gallery and decided I had to paint it.
This was my final of four paintings I did in the AIS Member Paintout last weekend. The American Impressionist Society has their 4th Annual Impressions Small Works Showcase this year at the RS Hannah Gallery in Fredericksburg Texas. For two days preceding the opening reception, members could paint out around Fredericksburg and put one painting in the "Wet Wall" Competition. This is the one I chose to enter.
The Small Works Showcase itself is a truly amazing show. Every time I browsed the show I was newly stunned that I was actually included! (My painting "Golden" is in the show.)

Meanwhile, here are some progress pics of Rear Window:
Shannon Hannah at the gallery wanted to keep this little painting a while longer (the Wet Wall Competition was only for the weekend) because she was eager to show it to the owners of that building. So this little "Rear Window" might be available at the RS Hannah Gallery 'til the end of the Small Works Showcase on April 4, when I go back to pick up "Golden"... Or maybe not!
