"Old Village Path II" SOLD

8"x10" Oil on Gessobord brand panel  sold

This path is same driveway I painted in the earlier post (Old Village Path) only from the opposite vantage point.  I was fortunate enough to meet the man who owns this property and he invited our painting group to come out any time to paint.  Such a sweet and gracious man, he gave us a little tour of his homestead and showed us the two grand Oak Trees he and his father planted over 70 years ago as a boy.  His lot is a high bluff which backs up to the Charleston Harbor and he allowed us access to the mini gardens below nestled near the water's edge.  Each garden was a respite of solitude and peace and made you feel like you were a million miles away from any neighborhood or city.  Hopefully you will be seeing paintings of those vistas soon.
The movie "Rich In Love" was filmed right here on this property.  And just two weeks before I painted this, L.L. Bean was here to do a catalogue photo shoot.  It's a lovely place.
