Trolley Alla Prima

I am working with a new style I call Willy Nilly but it’s actually called “alla prima” which is Italian and roughly translated means “done in one sitting.” My style is very loose and spontaneous and all alla prima paintings aren’t necessarily so, but this is what I decided to do. This painting is called Dowtown Trolley and I took this picture while painting minis in Tallahassee for LeMoyne Center for the Arts. I already posted Stripedie Reaches Out done in this style, which was my first, and there will be more to follow!
