Early Spring

Early Spring - acrylic on canvas, 2014

Second painting of the year. I found an old negative in a pile of family photos. This stems from the late 1930s or early 1940s. I believe it is my sister-in-law's step mother as a young girl. I thought her gesture and placement near the budding fruit tree was very poetic and need to be turned into a painting... here it is.

This painting is currently hanging at the Shenandoah Arts Council Gallery in Winchester VA.
