Firestone Home, Built 1880

This is an oil painting of a house built in 1880 by Harvey Firestone for his sister. It is on the south edge of Pine Lake along Lipply Road. It was moved to this spot a year ago & is now for sale. Yesterday was a beautiful sunny day to paint plein air after the past week of colder windy days.

Update: We were so sorry to hear an arson set a fire that burnt this house to the ground the summer of 2014.

Childhood Home near Alexandria

While painting the previous home a passerby stopped to commission me to paint his childhood home. This is also a historical building, which was moved to make room for a new highway. The angles were a challenge, but I really love the finished piece.

Bandstand Box Office

Van Wert, Ohio had a balloon festival this past weekend. They also sponsored a Plein Air Competition, which my artist friend Michelle & I entered. This old building had been the bandstand ticket office. It placed 3rd in the competition.
