Route 5 near Tifft

The boats kept moving but this massive grain elevator has sturdy concrete walls. I've been at this site to paint many times over the past two decades and every painting had different weather and light and foreground.

A Swim Painting

Using a long lost and faded dot matrix print as a reference I painted my son catching his breath in the pool. His swim achievements were many and hard won through High School. He started swimming in First grade with White Water Swim Club and stayed with them through High School, also swimming with the HS team.  

🏆 we have no idea where the reference B&W picture was taken but it may be from a newspaper article.
