Eddie Park

A recent paint-out with the Saturday group was at Eddie Park in South Pasadena.  It's a lovely small city park and sort of a hidden find on a neighborhood corner.  The Eddie family donated the two-story house and grounds to the city in 1934.  It has a nice barbeque area and small playground.  Local Girl Scout and Boy Scout troops meet there.

The weather report mentioned rain again but our plein air group had good luck and the sun came out.  I found the fall leaves and bright green lawn were picturesque subjects for painting.  While we were there painting, movie location scouts drove up to check it out.  You never know, the spot might show up in a future commercial.
