On the Prinsengracht
I was lucky to spend February of 2006 in Amsterdam, with nothing to do but experience the city and paint. In that time I completed 9 paintings. This piece, the first and largest, is my only painting ever to be painted outdoors and on-site. It depicts a bridge over the Prinsengracht, one of Amsterdam’s canals, with the Westerkerk in the distance. I should state that I did take one liberty with this scene; the trees were not in bloom in February.
Thanks to Chris T. for the photos and, of course, to Kelly for the experience of a lifetime.
