Happy to see the Dutchess County Fair make its annual appearance on Gurney Journey! I'm guessing we'll see more from it over the next few days. As always, a wonderful watercolor sketch. It's almost as though the juggler is a light source within the circle of onlookers. It also appears the building's roof had a temporary location in the middle background, a space now occupied by clouds. Finally, though it's probably not the case, the silhouette figure on the right could be the one making the painting.
Good observations, as always, Steve. That phantom roof in the sky was an early lay-in attempted from a different location. It was a stone bench, which we quickly discovered was the busy exit and entrance port for a hive of wasps.

I've been working on adding tiny people to my sketches, love your tiny people…
ReplyDeleteRichard, just a small round. Thanks, Capt.
ReplyDeleteWas this done on location? Amazing. I went to the NY State fair and was visually overloaded.
