"Maymont Morning"


8" x 10" Acrylic on linen panel

For the past several years, I've donated cartoons to the Maymont Foundation for its annual fundraising auction. This year, I decided I would instead donate a painting. Maymont is a great place to find subject matter, and I've done several paintings "en plein air" on the grounds, mainly during workshops. So an August morning found me wandering the estate in search of something new to paint. I decided on the chickens at the Childrens' Farm.

Very nice! I love Maymont. And I love birds. So it's only logical that I love this painting.
