Newest Painting: Cheraw State Park 6 '13

One of the reasons we took a trip to Cheraw State Park is that CC is deeply engrossed with painting South Carolina's State Parks and  she hoped to get some good reference photos and maybe even a painting or two if the weather cooperated.  The weather didn't and the trip  turned out to be a travel "disaster".  We got hit by rain, tornado warnings, and both the RV and the tow vehicle broke down on the way home.  Never the less  she was determined that some good would come from this  adventure,


When we got home she started working  on a painting  from a quick sketch and a photo  she'd made of two people in a canoe in Lake Juniper at   Cheraw State Park last weekend.  The  blurry photo  is the way the camera saw the scene.  The second image is the painting she did  once she got  home.  As you can see, the scene was a lot more vivid in her minds eye

This makes the tenth painting that Cece has completed  for the State Park Series since April.
