Low Country Time


"Charleston Beauty"
6x6 $95 + $10 s/h
What a beautiful giant oak in Charleston.  It's such a graceful tree and was fun painting it with a palette knife.  Using the knife allows the gentle suggestion of the moss hanging from the tree.  It looks like the perfect location to spread a blanket, grab a book and enjoy the afternoon. 

P.S.  Thanks to Joan Perry for the use of her beautiful photo & sorry it took so long.
