Swimmers

Painted plein air on January 2, 2024 in Hilton Head, SC.  You are kicking off the year right when it is spent with family and combining that with painting.  We spent a few days with grandkids, son and daughter-in-law in a great townhouse in HHI. It wasn't exactly swimming weather but these three weren't going to let that stop them.

I love the neat people in the pool. I also love the abstract nature of looking down from above of the pool and the swimmers. 

This was even more fun than usual to paint.

"Swimmers" will be heading to Settlers West in Tucson for the American Miniatures 2025 Show. This piece is a favorite of mine. Hope it warms someone else's heart as well.
