San Miguel Journal
These are images from my journal from San Miguel. It was a quick trip, so I did more touring and learning than painting. On the next trip I plan to paint more.
For finished paintings of San Miguel, visit my Watercolors on Canvas page.

This lady was begging in front of the cathedral in the center of town.
|

This beautiful fountain was in the courtyard of an art school. The entire property was formally a monastery, so the architecture is beautiful. The arcade around the courtyard has a little coffee shop where I sat and painted for hours. |
|

A view from the Instituto. I had a cup of coffee so that I could sit at a table and paint. It was not a long walk from our Bed and Breakfast.
|

The Laundry ladies at the local laundromat....an outdoor facility with cement basins and a trough of running water. Very primitive. And they were there all day long!

This laundress must have known that if she wore a red blouse and a hat with a red band, she would be the subject of all the paintings done that day.
|

I could paint in this location every day. The shadows and the colors were very exciting.
