John Browns Well

Saturday Morning Painters - We were lucky enough to be invited to the John Brown homestead to paint. Brown ran a tannery here in Hudson in the early 1800s.

There are so many beautiful scenes to paint on this property. I chose to start with the well outside the main house.

My painting is 5x7 on ampersand, alla prima.


I'm pretty happy with it - maybe just a touch up here and there..... I took so many photos today that it will take me a month of daily painting to do them all. And so look forward to many more posts from Old Tannery Acres!
