I painted this morning with PAAC on Santa Fe in the arts district. This Mexican restaurant caught my eye. I liked the light on the umbrellas, the trees, the sign, the wrought iron ... and there I went trying to paint way too many things and jumping around from one side to the other. Then they opened a doorway and the shadows changed completely in 1 1/2 hours. This is not easy at all. I decided to just enjoy the process today though, and I did.
