Winterthur Fireworks – Watercolor

Winterthur Fireworks watercolor by Yvonne Pecor Mucci (Framed 16 x 20)

As far as painting locations go, one can never go wrong with Winterthur Museum and Gardens. Day four of Plein Air Brandywine valley was spent near the gazebo. I wanted a different subject that played against all the bursting fall color.

This painting was donated to Children’s Beach House to be sold during their Winter White event on December 4th. Children’s Beach House is a nonprofit that focuses on special-needs children. http://www.cbhinc.org What a fabulous event for a great cause!

Our Spot – Watercolor

Our Spot watercolor by Yvonne Pecor Mucci (Framed 20 x 16, Sold)

“Our Spot” watercolor was my final painting for the Plein Air Brandywine Valley competition. I had visited Winterthur two years ago in the spring and loved this particular tree that was stretching out over a bench. Thought it was in the azalea garden and it took me quite awhile to find it in the peony garden. The spot was even more beautiful with the fall color bursting around the garden bench. While painting, I wondered how many had rested or had a conversation in that exact spot.

This competition ended with a gala held at Winterthur Museum & Gardens in the visitor center. There had to be over 400 paintings from 75 artists. Every sale benefits The Children’s Beach House, a nonprofit which helps special needs children. www.cbhinc.org

Thank you to everyone that lent a hand to this competition. Can’t wait to participate again next fall!
