Painting Of Two Girls Playing On A Tire Swing
This vibrant watercolor painting has a nostalgic flavor, bringing back carefree late summer, early fall after school memories - those warm September discussions about the new teacher, the boy that gave you a cookie at recess, what mom was cooking for supper that smelled so good. With farmers corn field and distant barn in the autumn color background, the focus of this painting is on the two little girls chatting on a tire swing that hangs from a huge Maple tree in the farmhouse front yard. They are still dressed in school clothes; school books and lunch box are still lying on the grass. The school bus has dropped them off and continued down the country road. The freedom of country outdoor life and childhood innocence is apparent in this hand-painted watercolor scene.
