One gazebo, two interpretations

Gazebo by Robert Rigsby, oil on linen

Sun-streaked afternoon at the Gazebo by Brenda Behr 12x9" oil on panel

These paintings Robert and I did on March 10 just after our long pose study with model Christina (posted earlier). Our first trip to Raulston Arboretum had been a week earlier, when the sun kept itself hidden. I found the painting I did on that sunless day, but not Rob’s. He had not painted the gazebo, but as I remember,  opted instead to make a flowering camellia bush his center of interest. Rob was attracted to color, so this time of year camellias, tulip trees and Eastern Redbud trees are a frequent reminder of our paint outs.
