If you live in the the San Francisco Bay Area, you don't need the explanation for this painting. It depicts the Palace of Fine Arts on a fine day. In addition to hosting art exhibitions, it remains a popular attraction for tourists and locals and is a favorite location for weddings.
I had a lot of trouble painting "SF Palace of Fine Arts" so much so that it took several weeks to finish it. It all had to do with the dumb idea of working with at least three photos: one for the colors of the main rotunda; the second for the colonnades; and the third for the lovely shadow shapes on the rotunda, and so on! I was a nerve wreck. Eventually, I redid the drawing and finished the painting based on one photo. Aargh. I hope it was worth all the trouble.
