An Oil Painting Of The Great Smoky Mountains

Smoky Mountain National Park

I was not sure which gallery to add this to so I decided since it was a total manipulation, this was the appropriate gallery for now. This is an oil painting I finished this week after three months of work. It is 56" wide and painted as a gallery wrap around image. My oldest son wanted an image from the Smoky Mountains to hang in the house he and his wife just moved into. It has been about five years since I last painted because I spend most of my time with photography. This was a fun change of pace and approach. This painting was based on one of my son's images he captured in the Smokies using some artistic license.

Even your paintwork is almost a photograph. A man with many talents.

Wow, I would love to be able to do this. I loved painting when I was very young but unfortunately my life went for other directions.V.

You have a talent, Dave. This is beautiful. I'm sure your son and his wife will treasure it and pass it on some day.

This is just beautiful, Dave. I admire your photography, but perhaps you shouldn't entirely ignore painting. V.
