It was raining and I was standing under a ramada when I did this originally.

Fire Station #1 Casa Grande - #22814 by Candy Barr
16 x 20 inches Oil on canvas
Last weekend there was an all day Casa Grande Plein Air Event.
Over 50 artists participated with 3 winners. The Captain at the fire station wanted my
painting if it didn't go for the purchase awards.. so there it proudly hangs!
Love chatting with the firemen in between their outings all day. They are such pillars of our communities.
So many coming and goings, and cases of mental illness emergencies rather than
fires if you know much about what too many of their calls are for.

Twenty five years ago false alarms were half the number of fires, today false alarms significantly exceed the number of fires.
According to Nightline it costs $3,500
every time a fire truck pulls out of a fire station in Washington, DC
(25 calls in a 24 hour shift is not uncommon so this adds up
quickly). Moreover, most of the time the call is not for a fire but
for a minor medical problem. In many cities, both fire trucks and
ambulances respond to the same calls. The paramedics do a great job but
it is hard to believe that this is an efficient way to deliver medical
care and transportation. A few locales have experimented with more
rational systems. For example:

Crashing Wave - #7113 by Candy Barr
16 x 20 inches Oil on canvas
No wifi in Maine while painting the last 2 weeks. So will post the series of waves and rocks during high tide at various beaches. Painted with the PAPME (plein air painters of Maine) on two occasions. NICE group!
The story of why I haven't posted in months is a saga really. For starters my back really went out end of March. And the short short version is grandson visit in LA, brother in Tulsa, Michael's son and family in CT, my daughter Trillium and met Ben in NYC, computer program difficulty still between Aperture and iPhoto, and integrating them (or knowing how to use the external HD...that's really the saga part....), back to LA, then re entry into VERMONT for one week ...leak in roof, purging clothes closet, re ordering desk office area with closet, purging office... painting in Maine 2 weeks ...and now family visiting for 2 weeks. I'm cooking and getting ready for 11 month old grandson who nearly is walking.

On Chaise Lounge #2313 by Candy Barr
As some of the underpainting remains, and it's always interesting the surprising juxtaposition of the two paintings together for a while. Sometimes it makes sense to leave some of it, but the equanamity of the pose and light with her shadow didn't seem to need the previous red. I did decide to remove the cushion below her as it raised her up too much looking like she was levitating on the lounge.
