Haystack Rock View -sold


oil 8x16 inches This is a commissioned painting for a client who contacted me by email. Her husband took a great photo of Haystack Rock while they were on vacation, and the painting is a surprise birthday gift for him. I really enjoyed working on this one, partly because I've visited haystack myself, but mostly because of the client's excitement about the commission. It was such fun to take part in a special birthday surprise!

  3. Thanks, Carol and Brian. The flowers in the foreground were in his photo. Understandably, the client wanted the painting to look like the photo. The only change I made was to move the foliage from the right side to the left, for better balance.
