Plein air day out, fishing on the banks of the Pearl River at Ross Barnett Reservoir Ridgeland, MS. This real life genre painting was created on site, in the open air, on a sultry afternoon, avoiding disturbing the fishermen and women there. Judging from their numbers, it's a choice spot when the spillway is releasing water, so I found the scene both peaceful and a little noisy from the drone of the roiling waters. The geometric concrete and the pretty blue-green surroundings feels quite humble, but picturesque as this is an ancient scene of humans gathering sustenance from their natural surroundings, even though enhancement by modern water-maintenance measures. The original is acrylic on stretched paper, I especially like the blues and grays, as it looks like a slightly limited color palette but has everything blue needed to soothe the eye and remind us of our connection to our resources in their simplest life cycle form. This one would be beautiful in a simple silver frame, but would love to hear what you choose, when you do, and where you might put it in your home or office. Hoping this goes back to the beautiful state of Mississippi, where it can be appreciated by a collector who knows how truly beautiful the state actually is...
