Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Just taking the opportunity to post this painting which is titled "Greens".
This was painted during one of my oil painting classes. I set up a still life of all green objects to fully explore the color.

Breaking Ice Around The Bend
11x14 oil
Artist friend Beth Bathe and I painted today at Fort Hunter. Probably my last time to paint the ice this season since a lot of it
melted during the few hours I painted this. Another sign of spring was
the swarm of bugs that were clinging to my paint, palette, crawling down
my shirt...I think at least 20 of them hitched a ride home in my gear. A
bit of Googling and I learned they were Winter Stoneflies. Apparently
they come out of the river in the early spring sunshine, feed on
vegetation, mate and lay their eggs back into the river.

St. Paul Lutheran Church in Dillsburg
That's me on the scaffold. I painted this wall in Sherwin William's "Major Blue" and stenciled the fleur di lis design as a backdrop for the figure statue.
