A STROLL THROUGH SUMMER
Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell



'A Stroll Through Summer'
Bushman Farm, Gettysburg National Military Park
Oil on Linen Panel
11 x 14

I love this area behind the Bushman Farm on the
Gettysburg Battlefield.  As you walk down the path,
you get a glimpse of Big Round Top directly
in front of you.  As you progress further down
the path, you can see the Slyder Farm and 
little Round Top to your left.  There is such
a variety of trees and other plant life, including those
 cedars that look like teardrops on a stick!

If you would like to see more of my work,
please visit my website or my blog. If you are
interested in purchasing any of my paintings you see
here on this blog, please contact me.

I love the feeling of depth in this work and of course, I love strolling through the summer...just wish it wouldn't stroll so quickly!

Thank you, Larry - I liked the balance those dried orange grasses gave to the scene.

Thanks, Bertie. I agree with you - these warm summer days go by way too fast.
