CALIFORNIA IMPRESSIONS

P. VAN CROMBRUGGHE

This is a scene from the local County Fair. I love the fair and the carousel horses. I went to the fair  when it opened for the day so was early enough to snap this picture of a    
joyful lone rider on the carousel that I found enchanting. The next painting is a carousel horse close up.  I snap photos wherever I go so I have a ready source of material to help me design new paintings. These photos can be an inspiration at a later date.
