Virtual Paintout April 2017

On the website, Virtual Paintout, participants are invited to paint between one and three painting based on Google Streetview photos from a country selected for each month.  Many painters think, "What shall I paint?" and this provides an interesting sideline to the usual subjects of local scenes and still-lifes.

This month the country is Tunisia and because Streetview is rather sparse in that country, it took me quite a while to find suitable sujects.  However, I eventually found a mosque in Kairouan and a hair-stylist in Ariana.

Underneath each painting, I've included the original screen captures from Streetview and also the two links to Streetview.
