6×8 watercolor – Strathmore 300 Series – 140 lb. cold press
This painting is from a photo that I took with my iPhone on our recent trip to St. Louis. We traveled there Thanksgiving week for my wife’s cousin’s wedding. In between preparations for the wedding and the family Thanksgiving meal we went to the St. Louis arch. Immediately, I regretted not bringing my Canon 7D. After going up in the arch, I went up the hill and took a photo of the Old Courthouse building.
