Eleanor Rowland |
Long Island, $275
Original Watercolor 14 x18 framed (actual piece 9 x 12) www.elrowlandsartland.com |
This painting is of one of the Islands on Lake George, a sample of
several I have painted while enjoying a picnic with some of my boating
friends. Because it was created Plein Air, meaning on location, it
depicts a very small intimate scene, an impression of the time and place.
My strong attachment to the Adirondack and Lake George region is the
source of passion. I have for painting my impressions of the natural beauty
found here. This is where I choose to be, and, as an artist, my goal is to
create my visions, as I see, hear, feel, live and experience life every
day. |
