Southern American Realism

My friend and art student, Mariah. My favorite painting for a lot of reasons. The colors just facinated me, plus it was totally different than anything that I have ever painted. Also, Mariah is a perfectionist when it comes to her art, so that left me with a very small margin of error. One of my most detailed paintings and one of my largest egg tempras. Her passion for her art is almost a mirror image of my love for painting over the last thirty three years................strong as ever! Mariah is also an accomplished artist and art major at Austin Peay State University.
