These are two paintings I did at this years Ralph Love Plein Air.  I decided to paint  City Hall at different times of the day, with the different lighting conditions.  For as similar as the compositions are the effect of the paintings is really quite different.

With the Ralph Love Plein Air coming up in a couple weeks I thought I'd re-post a couple paintings from previous years, 2012 and 2010 Best of Show.
