My favorite part of the week is usually Saturday night around 6:00 or so. After a day of painting or running errands I love to sit out on my deck and enjoy a cigar and a cold beverage. My deck is elevated about 12’ from the ground so it overlooks my lawn that extends into a wooded area.
The painting shown is a view from my deck. The lawn and forest area are painted on a 12x16” Gessobord panel. The planks and beams of the deck are painted on a piece of glass. Before I framed the piece I separated the glass and the panel with four balsa wood strips that are concealed by the lip of the frame. The picture shown does not really give the right perception, but if you were to look at the painting from any angle you can really see how the glass is offset from the panel.
