BOSTON PAINTOUT

This is my January entry to Bill Guffey's Virtual Paintout Blog.
VERDIGRIS TURRET WINDOW (14x11 canvas panel) Ref Photo
Lo Anna, and I keep wondering what it would be like to sit in this window. Do you think the room is decorated with furniture from the period of the building? I modified the reference photo by widening the turret window and wall to the right, narrowing the shadow areas to the left, and moved the lantern to the right. I also removed a drain pipe, some fencing, and a cellar window.
I still have some minor painting to do on this piece. The fire escape shadow needs a little work, and I want to get more green into the turret window.
