On April 28, 2012, I  traveled to Topeka, KS to paint plein air for the Topeka Paint Out sponsored by the Southwind Gallery of Topeka. There were over 50 artists painting through out Topeka. We were to paint anything that we thought represented Topeka. I went to the Ward Meade park to paint the historical residence and in the afternoon I traveled to Ensley Gardens to paint the gazebo near a small run off.
