Pasadena Near Woodward




















Pasadena Near Woodward
Oil on linen/panel, 2012, 7x5"
Today's daily oil painting is a view of a building on Pasadena Ave near Woodward Ave.
I have painted the white building before when it was a bright blue color. The green wall was exposed after the red building burned and was torn down. I am not sure why the blue building was painted white, as it is empty. The building on the north side of the white building was also burned and torn down revealing an old ghost sign. A subject for another painting.
