“Rush Hour Evening” by Jane McElvany Coonce

“Rush Hour Evening” by Jane McElvany Coonce


This exquisite painting, by Jane McElvany Coonce http://www.jmcelvany.com/, is called “Rush Hour Evening”.  She painted it after a plein air session on the roof top of the Lennox Club, an apartment building in Crystal City.  This plein air “Paint Out” session was sponsored by the Arlington Artists Alliance.  Jane loved the view of the headlights on the cars as people headed home from work and was able to capture the twilight ambience in her painting.

This really captures the sense of evening movement. The colors are fantastic!
