The Virtual Paintout is in the Azores this month, and I
began motoring around the two islands that have been ‘Streetviewed’ with some
trepidation. I was there for two hours once,
during an unannounced and never-explained stop on a Lisbon to Montreal flight,
and I don’t remember seeing anything but a flat expanse of volcanic soil, and a
few trees like the ones in this painting, only much smaller.
But, to my surprise, within ten
minutes I found this (here’s a link to it) and three other very paintable scenes! I had quite a time eliminating the other
possibilities and – unless I come across other things that just have to be
painted – will probably paint another Azores Streetview next week.
