PICTURES OF THE WEEK Including from Recent St. Charles, IL Plein Air Painting Event & a Providence, Rhode Island Reader -- Beautiful!!
"Good evening, Hotel Baker" by Janice Czerwinski; oil on 12" x 16" birch panel.
ARTIST STATEMENT: "This painting took 3 evenings to complete due to the complexity of the stonework. I 'm not a night owl either so I ran out of gas by 11pm the first night." It was for sale at the St. Charles Arts Council plein air Grand Reveal party on 8/23/25."
Who knows, it may have already sold! If so, you are one lucky art patron!!
As always, beautiful job, Janice!!!
