A limited palette painting with only five colors used.  Two dark colors and two light colors, and some green where necessary.  An impression of passing light. 

This is a downtown view looking down Francis Street in St. Joseph, MO.  One thing I like about St. Joe, is the rich architecture and variety of old structures still standing.  The church seen in the background is the Christ Episcopal Church, built in the 1870's.  The building with the old green corner windows is the Krug building, constructed in 1904.  Much history and beauty is found in the area, all too often ignored.
