Study of Summer’s End
Study of Summer’s End
This small painting, 8″ x 10″, was a study to work out the design of my much larger and more detailed painting, Summer’s End.
The inspiration for this painting came from a photo I took last year on one of my regular dog walks through my neighborhood in September.
The way the light touched this beautiful flower with its bowing head was so striking to me. After a year, I finally painted the image that was in my mind!
This study is bold and simple compared to the detailed larger painting, and it captures the simplicity in the joy of the moment.
