"Maypole" by: Unknown


Photo taken by: Scott Douglas

This 18X24 watercolor is something I proudly went "dumpster diving" for. The artists name is illegible. This piece now is displayed in my home. I enjoy this piece because of the children involved with it. One can see the action of the children as they weave in and out of one another, the ground is worn where they skip and sing. There is no major emphasis on any part of the painting and the artist was able to set the depth by creating the line of tall grass in the background. The artist captured the simple things in life that kids enjoy. I can hear them laughing as play.
