COMMISSION: 'The Stone Wall'
An Original Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell


'The Stone Wall'
Oil on Panel
8 x 16
SOLD

I always like to be part of a surprise, and this commission
was for the man who built the curved stone wall in this
painting.  I haven't posted any pictures until I was 
absolutely sure that he had received the artwork.  It
was also so very nice to learn today from Art & Soul Gallery
that he loves his gift!
Successful surprise all-around.


Below is a picture of my photo reference.  I used it for the
objects, but tried to give the painting a sense of light and life.

On January 11-12 2013, I will be conducting 
a two-day workshop on 'Painting from Photographs'.
If you are interested, please
