Day 2 of 30 – Memorial Church, Harvard Yard

Memorial Church, Harvard Yard. Michele Clamp. Watercolor 14”x11”

First (actually second) up in the big ‘painting a day’ series is a Harvard Yard scene. I used to often catch a glimpse of the church through the buildings and always liked the way the light fell. I’ve done a closer view of this but never managed to capture the wider scene. Pretty happy with this one but I don’t think I’ve finished with this view yet.

A couple of intermediate shots:

This was the last demo in this terms classes and day 1 of the 30 in 30. I really liked the contrast between the dark and light blues and the subtle shading on the neck. I really enjoy the classes and, even over zoom, it’s nice painting with a group of people. Having said that it will be nice to have some more time for my own work and hopefully paintings will be coming thick and fast in the next couple of months
