Dupont Circle -- A Gorgeous Morning

I'm encouraging artists to submit works for a juried show of Dupont Circle paintings sponsored by the Foundry Gallery (www.foundrygallery.org). Submissions are due by June 26, so this is a great time to paint. As a gallery member, my work isn't part of the show, I'm just encouraging others. This morning, Ruth Becker and I -- we didn't find Don or Lou, although they said they'd be there -- had the pleasure of painting in the circle.

I was agonizing about painting the roller bladers who sat on the circle and if they weren't a great compositional element, I don't know that I would have stressed myself with getting their images down in the 2 minutes they sat there. But they were, and I did.
