"Old Blue Bus", by Kurt Plinke
transparent watercolor
Arches 140 lb cp

Plein Air study, 6" x 10"

About a mile from the studio, across a field sits an old blue school bus in the back of a farm yard.  I've always liked the play of light and shadow on the old bus as it sits behind a row of Loblolly Pines. I sketched it quickly in watercolor, thinking it may eventually become a bigger painting. Sometimes small paintings plow the row for larger works, either as a color experiment, a compositional play or as a glorified thumbnail sketch. I bet this one will be a little of all three. In any case, I really like the simplicity of this little painting.
