Lady Liberty of the Susquehanna River
12x9" Acrylic on Canvas Panel
This is the other painting that I re-worked this week to start off the new year. The scene is from a Marysville PA boat launch. I thought I was finished with this painting on site a few years ago, but it haunted me in my studio until last week. I made the strokes bolder and punched up the sky.

Love this painting Mary Beth - wonderful composition draws your eye right to the statue. Was this the same day as the one I posted of the bridge? It looks like the same sky.
Yes it is the same day. I added some shapes for clouds. The orginal painting was the same colors, but very soft.
I bet this one is even nicer "in person". You plein air painters have it made! Nice.
Beautiful painting Mary Beth!!
I am starting a new commission of a similar scene to donate to the opening of the new Center for Independent Living location in Newport. The painting is to be made into a poster and print for additional fund raising.
That said- your painting is a BEAUTIFUL inspiration to me to paint the Susquehanna today!
Wonderful painting!
