Due to COVID-19 I have visited Living Memorial Park, in Brattleboro, VT our local recreational area, more than any other year by far. Over the course of the various shutdowns and summer season I discovered how much the park has to offer. Not only do we have ballfields, hiking trails, a t-bar for skiing and a children's playground but a skatepark, dog run, and performance stage. There are numerous other activities I have left out.
Early in the season I played tennis many times in the park. I came to appreciate the changing light late in the afternoon, as noticed from the tennis courts. These experiences inspired me to try to capture the atmospheric qualities of this time of year.
This plein air watercolor was finished at home. I was struck by the interesting clouds and burst of greenery.
