Today’s watercolor experiment:
I took the photo on which I based today’s watercolor one morning in autumn of 1991. I love oblique lighting, the kind that side-lights a brick wall, casting long shadows of each imperfection. The light was just right on that September morning. When I proudly showed my photo to friends, I told them I would never forget where I took the photograph.
Mystery Street
4″x6″ 140# Mixed Media Paper
The secret was not associated with anything else I saw that day, but is contained in the photograph itself. My friends didn’t notice. Can you tell from my watercolor?
Mystery Street – Reference Photograph
How about from the photograph?
Of course the bottom graffiti gives the address.
Great sense of light. And to repeat: wonderful series. (K.)
Thanks, K. I thought it was obvious as well. My friends must have been confused.

As are we all.
