Artist

Medium
Painting - Oil On Wood Panal
Description
The scene is a familiar one: two brothers, their pet dog, and a special place in time, all the ingredients for preserving memories that last a lifetime, if not forever.
I remember when growing up, days lasted longer, summers seemed endless, and family and friends were always around.
Now, time passes much too quickly; summer ends as suddenly as it begins, and too many family members and friends are now gone.
Painting "Forever Friends" brought back memories from my own childhood, when my brothers and I spent our summers hiking and exploring in the company of our faithful and loyal companion, a black lab we called Blackie, and we were "Forever-Friends.
