Roses and the Old

Pine Mountain, Georgia

At one time is my painting career, I taught a small painting class in Cartersville, Georgia.  Some of the students wanted to paint pictures to go with their decor.  One of the paintings, that would be suitable for a kitchen was a painting, I called “Roses and the Old”, showing an old coal bucket, a milk can and an broken down fence sitting in a field, with some roses just starting to bloom.  This painting was a lot of fun, without my usual detail. The idea came from an old junk shop located in Pine Mountain, Georgia.
