Description
It's apple season. Tuckered out, a golden lab puppy sleeps until roused by the school bus, when it can race around the yard with the children.
To the art, I added an antique Victorian tin pail that holds the Campfire Girl merit beads from my own childhood. My mother was a Campfire Girls leader, in a program similar to the one for Girl Scouts. May she (and other similar leaders!) always be blessed for the time and creativity given to young girls.
The original oil painting of size 27 x 20 inches has been in my studio since 2005 as part of the decor. Framed size is 30 x 24 inches and includes its brass title plate. I painted it on a sanded, tempered plastic board, using 100% lightfast oil pigments by Daniel Smith (USA) and Winsor & Newton (England).
I varnished it with satin-sheen (mix of gloss and matte) varnishes by Daniel Smith, synthetic methacrylate-resin varnish with UV protection. Created from the artist's own photos and sketches, it has colors of blue, green, autumn gold, brown umber, rust, and terra cotta, and brick red.
