Layers Of Vision




So today was taken from me by routine obligations. My car in the shop and ready for pick-up and my daughter's car in another shop and ready for pick-up...oh yeah and they must be paid for too. Whoa...the drama of everyday living.

So I'm driving around (in my son's car, which I borrowed for the day), handling the daily tasks which must be done. But in between conversations and duties my mind is thinking and planning on those individual paintings of each of the lake cottages at my new studio location. The cottages in true Midwest style are campers & trailers with porches and deck attachments. You know, a working man's vacation home. There wonderful, glorified shanties with air conditioning and televisions. While providing you with a delightful rustic break to a more simple way of living.

See some of the snapshots below of these wonderful cottages. Now with an artists eye, some paint, and canvas I will transform these wonderful little cottages into the beautiful little treasures they are....in fact, my first one completed is the Original Acrylic Painting titled: Weekend View listed above in color and black & white prints. The other mixed media painting shown above, The Boat Landing is my rendition of the boat landing at the big lake located in this small camping community.
