Acrylic on gesso smooth board, 11 inches x 14 inches. I was inspired to paint a scene that I found in a book by artist Aimee Erickson entitled Plein Air Techniques for Artists. The book was a gift on my 83 birthday from my brother-in-law, Craig Hannum, Lake Oswego, Oregon. It’s a beautiful book, and it’s especially important because Craig knew Aimee Erickson and had her sign the book with this message: “Hello Jack, Who knows what’s next, Amiee.” If you are an art student, a neophyte like me, or an accomplished artist, this book will extend your knowledge and skill of painting.
