Jump on, and let’s go

The first oil is titled Glacier Park St. Mary’s Lake. I have to apologize that some of the photos appear off-center or skewed. The lighting was not the best and did cast on the paintings to create a hot spot. I moved around until the hot spot disappeared.

Love That Country Music.

I hope you enjoyed the art. Time to relax and have some food while listening to the music. Wishing you a super week.

  9. These are all fantastic pieces. I was particularly drawn to the shoppers (reminds me of me and my mother) and the red umbrellas. That would make a fun jigsaw puzzle. Thanks for sharing, John! Wishing you and the family a peaceful Sunday.

  14. From Tom : Wow. Love the Cypress Mill Creek and The Old House for sure. I wish I could paint like that. I have to settle for my Paint by Numbers kit. 😀
