This is an Original Oil Painting

Oil on Linen

Maple Shadow Frame

This painting is one in a series of works I did from a visit to my daughter who lives in downtown Charleston, South Carolina. I visited recently and she had to work so I wandered around and took pictures of anything I thought was lovely. Turns out it was a lot of lovely things. Charleston has the feel of New Orleans and even Richmond, so the scenes are familiar to me. The goal was a feeling of Charleston and a moment in time. It is an amazing place to live and full of the old and the new and I did quote a few paintings of this beautiful town.

This piece too me a long time and many layers to catch the way the sunshine just beams between the buildings. I love the way it turned out and am having a tough time not keeping it!
