This painting is my first official installment of Operation Summer Strokes, although I painted this before summer was official inaugurated. (I'm making the rules to this project as I go along, like my grandson does when playing monopoly). I saw a photo similar to this on none other than Facebook and took advantage of the download. Anything downloaded to a social media site is fair game, which does have some advantages. The arrangement was so light and airy, so inviting that I attempted to paint it. When painting from a photograph, the idea is NOT to duplicate but use the basic idea, tailor to suit the goal of the artist.
