Today’s art is another small color rough of a possible high-detail painting I may do as a high-detail Hopperesque piece later. This time it’s from the same hotel that inspired last week’s view, but it’s looking out the hotel window at the parking lot and buildings behind Lexington Green, the retail/hotel complex where our Embassy Suites was located. I actually snapped the photo that inspired a week ago this last Friday night, expecting to wake up to a snow-covered hellscape so I could do a “before/after” thing, but when we woke up, there wasn’t a flake of snow to be seen.

This piece is acrylic on illustration board, and it’s a little larger than last week’s art. Plus I had a little more control over my fingers this week, though the cold has not been very kind to them.

I have a feeling I’ll like this more once I have time to transfer it to canvas and spend more time on it with working digits. As it is, it captures the color and composition, but the rendering is rough.
