Monthly Painting Challenge
Maya at the Fountain

$50 © Pam Van Londen 2010, Maya at a Fountain, oil on 8×8-inch archival Claybord panel. Unframed.

I think this fountain is located in downtown Portland but I’ve forgotten. Can anyone locate it for us?

This month’s Virtual Paintout is Czech Republic. This scene was shot by Google in Prague.

Perhaps someday I’ll get to travel there in person.

This image is a diptych; two panels painted together.

I’ll frame them separately, but if you wanted, they can be framed together.

I painted them in oil on claybord, but was going for a watercolor effect, which I pulled off.

I invented much of the color to add some life to a sometimes washed-out scene.
