Description
I've finally completed the FOUR SEASONS and I am very happy with the way that they turned out. I worked on all four of them during the last 6 months and let me say that it was a journey. The beautiful maidens for these paintings truly made them special and I owe them my gratitude. The landscapes are completely made up and inspired by my many walks by the stream in Valley Forge Park, two miles down the road from where we live. It is absolutely a beautiful and peaceful place and I always feel like I am walking in God's garden when I am there.I hope you enjoy them and I hope that each painting gives you a sense of peace and a sense of love in the same way that I felt while painting them.
The originals are created in watercolor and they measure 26x32. They were commissioned by a lovely couple just outside of Pittsburgh. Prints are available on my website.
The models are:

So how much does one of your original sell for? And how can you get prints made so cheaply? I assume one goes the print game when there is a high demand for ones work?

That piece of branch that's just behind the woman's head kind of looks like her wings... That's sort of cool. Was that planned..?

The details are gorgeous, as usual. I love the little rabbit at her feet. And the girl's dress is so stunningly beautiful. I love the color.
