En Plein Air

Most of the time I've made paintings so far they have been based on either one photograph, or several different photographs of the same thing. I've been
in Spain since Tuesday evening, and so I decided to try some on the spot painting, which I think is called doing it en plein air - which is French for - well, I'm sure that you can work it out.

This is the old station in the village of San Isidro, outside Alicante. Except it really isn't. Not all of it anyway. This is just a wall and a canopy from it, whish were re-erected about a mile away from the new station, on a quite street which had a blank wall. This is now a lovely public space, where they often hold concerts.
