When approached to paint a scene of hanging laundry, similar to a piece I painted in the past, I imagined an evening summer scene. My last painting felt more like farm land and this one I wanted to feel like lake country. A classic cabin and lake shore, along with timeless clothing, give this piece a feeling of the past but it could easily be present day. I wanted this painting to feel calm - she is content to be where she is.
Setting Summer Sun is a 20"x16" brushed acrylic ink painting on 140 lb. hot press Arches paper. The original is sold. I will have prints and cards available this spring at Peculiar Painter in Walker, MN. | 218-547-3729
