Cirquesa


CIRQUESA
oil
8" x 10"
Cirquesa tents plein air, Venice, FL.  The Cirquesa honored Venice with a performance last week during the coldest period in a hundred years for Florida.  Many circus performers families have adopted Venice as their home.  This was a challenge to paint and many times I was ready to give up and wipe it off, but determined to have a painting to honor the Cirquesa, worked and reworked it until I had something I could stand to look at.  I hope they do a repeat performance next year and I'll try again.
