Georgia Cotton - SOLD

"Georgia Cotton"

5.75"x 7.75" Oil on linen panel.
$100. + $8. s&h. - sold

This cotton was retrieved from the side of the road near Fritzgerald, Georgia on a recent trip.
To make the painting a bit more colorful I staged it with my "stressed" green tin. Yep, it was a new tin that I banged up, painted and stressed by sanding off some of the paint. The exposed metal rusted after setting it out in the flower bed for a month. I'm more proud of this tin than most of my paintings. The cotton was honored to be put on stage with the treasured tin.

This is a gorgeous painting! I've really enjoyed exploring your blog and your ability to combine a sense of looseness with refinement. Beautiful tin!
