Bumpkin


oil on canvas panel 6x6 inches
Another painting from last year, this one looks great with my last post, The Pink Lady. It also is available at the Fall Show.
Sorry I haven't been able to post daily for so long, but soon things will get back to normal. The show opened today, and we had a great turn-out to see over 325 pieces of beautifully displayed artwork. I'm very happy to report I was awarded second place in the oil category with my painting "Just Glass", (posted August 7.) Today was a GREAT day! I painted in a room literally filled with art while hanging out with all my artist friends. Tomorrow, more of the same. Yippee! I'll finish and post the floral I started, working from life... my friend Martha's big mason jar full of fresh sunflowers. I doesn't get any better than this...(except for maybe plein air!)
