I always told myself to draw the church near my house before it was too late. Apparently it suffered irreparable seismic damage and is soon to be leveled.
Strangely, the tree in front of it is dying too. Maybe it knows things are coming to an end.

Awesome Dani. You're making it looks easy! I love being surprised by great paintings when I get home.
Joontoo!Joontoo!
Beautiful! I look at the car and go 'oh it's a red car,' and then I doubletake and it's actually a pink, maroon, and orange car, because of the light... I am in awe
hello! very nice work in your blog! beatiful sketches from life and paintings! cool!:)
Or the seismic damage also damaged the roots.
Either way, lovely drawing :)
Today is both a beautiful and awful day. I never knew that the church was going back to its maker. Thank you for painting this church while it was still possible. I can't think of anyone who would have done it better. You've captured exactly the way it swims in my memory. Bye Bye church.
Maybe we should eat a pb&j on its steps as a farewell.
And yes, the trees always know.
Great painting, Dani! Very inspiring! Thanks for sharing! JVB
Hi, I love your blog and really love your name.
Wow, dani, your stuff blows me away!
Very nice life sketch, the colors are beautiful
Thanks J. Hopefully I'll keep surprising you at work too...
Joontoo's next week... crazy!!!
Thanks Emma, but I have to admit some things are accidental.
Thank you, Stranded!
Thanks Austin, I didn't even think of that. Or maybe the roots turned evil and are sucking out the tree's energy to grow powerful and uproot the church?
Hi Melanie. I love that you stopped by and that you commented.
And yes, a farewell pbj ceremony's is in order!
Thanks John!
