(similar composition to Page 10) This is a studio study of Guanajuato for my next painting which I plan to pour. (Stay tuned…) I call it “After School.” I took this photo because the lighting made a good composition, and the flagstone pattern in the sidewalk and street made an inviting entrance into the picture plane. It was only after I returned that I noticed the strong visual connection between the mother and her daughter. Even with her back turned away from the camera, I could see this pair had eyes only for each other. Such a sweet subject.
