Plein aire painting

Friday there was a plein aire paint out event in Key West sponsored by the Key West Art Center http://www.keywestartcenter.com/ Over 30 artists hit the streets to paint and then were brought together art the Art center for a showing. It was great fun and although there was a threat of rain it turned out to be a beautiful day.

I ended up on Southard between Duval and Whitehead as this huge old bougainvillea caught my eye. I had such fun painting on the sidewalk , talking to people enjoying the day.
