Tarzan and Jane

This is a plein air painting of the Trinity River at the Audebon Center south of Dallas. I was really enchanted with the vines and small trunks of trees that framed my view of the river. The painting reminded me of something Fragonard might have painted so I kind of pushed that idea. I will probably work on this a little bit more but now I'm in Santa Fe and there is snow out here so I'm thinking of doing a full moon snow at night painting. We'll see.
