"Wrap Around"
6" x 8"
oil on canvasboard
Ideally, my favorite kind of deck on a house.
Someday...
The inspiration for this painting was
from a source I found
on a photo sharing site.
But I often flip the photo and take
things out that bother me visually, change colors and
surfaces and even sometimes - light, that is a real challenge.
I wanted this simple and uncluttered ~ and it is.
I would like to do this one larger some day..
and when it gets a little dryer,
I AM going to work on those
Adirondack chairs a little more -
this canvas was too
small to do them justice.
That's what I am finding, in the time I have to paint something,
I am actually trying these subjects out
for larger stuff one day.
ONWARD!

Hi Pattie,
We love your paintings, especially your Adirondack chairs. Please take a look at our painted Adirondack chairs for inspiration - http://adirondackchairsonly.com/painted-adirondack-chairs--furniture.php
We had a contest recently where people used Adirondack chairs as the canvas similar to this - http://aldermanarts.typepad.com/.shared/image.html?/photos/uncategorized/2008/09/28/adirondack_chairs.jpg
A very welcoming place! Thanks for letting us know how this challenge is helping you for future paintings! Looking forward to those too!
Well, it's not every day, someone offers their source photos for your usage - thanks Adirondack Chairs! You have some very nice ones! And thanks Victoria.
