#2831 "Wet Maples in December"

#2831 "Wet Maples in December"
10x8 inches oils on canvas panel

Not surprisingly, the December rain was cold and wet. 

The only option was to paint gazing out of the Singleton Studio window. The marble ridge just to the southeast was blanketed by Carolinian deciduous forest and that provided the out-of-focus backdrop to the sugar maple I had planted a decade before. The maple was still clinging to the last of autumn. Water dripped off the leaves and branches. I was warm and dry with both the wood stove and the 1977 vintage Radio Shack Realistic Stereo on. Some things are built to last.
