The weather was borderline cold, borderline gray today, and I almost wimped out. But I rallied and took myself to ... a parking lot. And I painted ... a concrete "Jersey" barrier. As I was getting set up, a woman came up to me and asked why I didn't paint something beautiful. I replied that I'd try to make this barrier beautiful! Later she drove by and said I'd succeeded.
I'm not sure about that, but I kinda like this one. It could use some scale, though -- a figure or a car or something. Maybe I'll take another crack at it later.
