Lotus Blossoms
12″ x 24″ Oil on panel
This scene is painted from a photo that I took on our last trip. We were visiting the Poughkeepsie, NY area. The painting does not due justice to the gorgeous pond. I had to stop along a country road and quickly take pictures with my long lens. There were lots of “No Trespassing” signs posted so I stayed at the roadside.
Hambley-Wallace House
