"Early Spring: Girl by Pond #2"
20"x30" 1-1/2" Deep, Painted sides, Oil on Canvas
$ 700

There is nothing like the first day of spring, especially after a long winter. It is a soothing experience to feel that gentle cool breeze and the sun's warmth after its been absent for so long. Well, this was one of those days. I painted this from a photograph in Ste. Genevieve County. Here, a young girl explores the edge of the pond with a stick. That day, I thought about how nice it would be if I was a kid again with not much to do or think about except what I'm gonna eat or where I'm gonna play.
