It's hard to believe I've participated in the Virtual Paintout for over two years. I love seeing parts of the world via Google Street View that I will never see in person. Bill Guffey chooses a location for each month's Virtual Paintout. Artists look around virtually for their view to paint, just as they would on a real life paint-out. Pieces are submitted to Bill who posts all on his blog and on Facebook. I wish we could revisit some cities that were monthly selections before I started participating.
The location for November 2014 was Luxembourg. It looked beautiful there. I wasn't able to spend more time browsing but I only saw one tiny bit of graffiti, something that always stands out. As always I painted two small pieces. Good practice, and having a deadline sometimes is a good thing.

Both are wonderful! I like to visit places around the world via webcams and Google earth. I am really an arm chair traveler, I guess.
