I love all the shadows the eaves and dormers and peaks cast all over this house. Great moment just as the light was fading from the day.

Bub's is a local bar and grill. Great burgers and atmosphere. And for all of you not from Winona I will be amiss if I didn't mention that Bub's is actually pronounced Boobs. There that should make anyone from Winona happy that I pointed that out :)

I really focused on injecting a bit more color into this little painting. I've been painting really shadowy brick buildings lately and they are mostly brown/black with grey skies. This one is more uplifting and cheery. Kinda like the weather outside this week! Come on spring!

This is an old advertisement painted along the side of a brick building in downtown Winona. I'd imagine it was slightly more vibrant back in the day. A nice little bit of history though.

I love how the tone of this painting turned out. It's a little moody.  This is the third building I've painted of the four corner buildings on the corner of Franklin and 3rd street here in Winona. The "No Name" title comes from one of its residents ~ "Ed's 'No Name' Bar"

I went a little larger than I usually paint. I'm trying to stretch myself a bit...trying not to get stuck in a rut of doing the same thing with every painting.
