PALM IN THE SUN By Cecelia Lyden

acrylic on canvas
6x8
I did this painting from a photo I took on a bright sunny morning. I walked around the clean streets in Ft. Pierce, with the indent to take photos of the beautiful empty buildings. It was on this mission that I noticed the shadows of the graceful palm trees on the sides of these buildings. Before I return to PA, I hope to find capture more palm tree shadows on buildings and sidewalks.

What fun the shadows are! The red roof is the star of this one, for sure. Great horizontals and verticals keep it moving, along with those small touches of red elsewhere. I really like it!
