Introduction: the Virtual Paintout project was started by Bill Guffey (here) and is open to any artists of all abilities and most mediums. Each month we travel via Google Street View to a new place, and choose our own spot as inspiration for our painting.
For those of us who can't go in person for various reasons, this is a fantastic way to find inspiration! I feel like my wheelchair has WINGS!! :-D
