A different take on yesterday's theme. Once again I have reached a point in my painting that I am not happy with - far too itsy-bitsy, too restricted to reality, just boring. So I am trying to get looser again and hope to be able to achieve something more interesting.

The old townhall in the town's center dates back to 1270. On the square in front is a fountain, adorned with a beautiful sculpture of a young girl carrying a basket and a goose, called "Gänseliesel". She is the local landmark.
