Spring Sale

This painting sold last Thursday in the Salmagundi Members Spring Auction, an annual event limited to fellow members of the Salmagundi Club, in Manhattan. Numbering about 1200 members worldwide, the Club is one of the oldest art clubs in the United States, founded in the 1870s. 

"Wading," oil on panel, 9x12

This particular painting is a culmination of several months of landscape painting. It does have a basis in reality, a stretch of river in southwest Virginia, but is very much altered and idealized. Thank you to my new collector.
