HONG KONG PAINTOUT


Laundry on Third Street (12x16 Oil on canvas panel) [Ref Photo]
Love to paint old grungy buildings, and if they have some bright colors in the sun all the better. The bright clothesline made this scene interesting. I think the hot pink flowered shorts are the focal point. I could not recreate the color of these shorts. I started with cad red and anything mixed with if tends to gray down the results.
