Totally Awesome

This weekend I went with my parents to Utah State University to see Meredith's Totally Awesome 80's Concert featuring the choirs at USU.  It was totally awesome.  We stopped by her apartment for a bite to eat before her rehearsal and hung her fig painting on the wall.

I am now working on a painting of Ponte Vecchio for a painting challenge on A Day Not Wasted.  I decided to experiment with a technique I've heard of but never tried.  I put everything down in black and white first.  It is supposed to help get the values right, but I really liked how it was so easy to rework and rearrange until the perspective is right--or close.
