Description
The International Plein Air Painters (IPAP) http://www.i-p-a-p.com/ was a direct response to the tragedy of 911. Something positive and constructive needed to arise from those ashes. Art is really the universal language that transcends political boundaries and cultures in a creative and positive way. The Kingston School of Art (KSOA) https://www.ksoa.info/ has been organizing Paint the Town in conjunction the International Plein Air Painters Worldwide Paint Out since 2013. They do a fantastic job of coordination and I have been painting with them since 2014 on this very special weekend. I was remembering another September Day twenty years before.
I decided to paint with the sun on my back looking toward King Street West and the Kingston Pennitentiary. I did not even move my easel from where I painted #2544 "Toad of Portsmouth Harbour". Some of those homes that front King Street West were really close to the traffic on the street.
Unlike that blue bird sky twenty years previous, this September sky was occasionally filled by cumulus congestus. One of these convective towers actually produced a few drops of rain. The southwesterly flow off Lake Ontario kep the temperature very comfortable.The warm front had already moved to the northeast of Portsmouth Harbour and had been marked by some bands of cirrostratus.
These small and smooth panels encouraged me to just lay the correct colours in and then leave them alone.
