Our Pedernales River View


Enjoyed a day of simple pleasures with my mother today. Painted this (16 x 20 canvas) from a photo of our VILLA TEXAS river place south of Fredericksburg. My first attempt in acrylics---pretty different from watercolor or oils. Can't wait to build my art studio with this view! Anxious to plant a few olive trees to replace some of our lost lavender plants!

Looks great -- I'd have known that riverfront parcel without hesitation!
