"The Lion and Lambs"

I had the inspiration to do this painting after I had a friend at an art show ask me if I have ever painted a Lion and Lamb.  I told her I did not but I was going to.
I wanted it to look like an African scene with the Lion and the Lambs and added the two trees on the left where the Lion is laying down with the lambs.  I also wanted to have lions in the background to tie it all together and the trees in the background are like the ones in the foreground.  They are native to that part of the country.  I also wanted to add the trees and mountains in the far background for
added interest.

Isaiah 11:6 "The wolf shall also dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and young lion and the
fatling together; and a little child shall lead them."


"Glade Creek Grist Mill"

I was inspired to paint this grist mill because I do like to paint old barns and grist mills.  This grist mill is very old and located
in the Babcock State Park in West Virginia.  There have been many photographers as well as artists who have viewed this
old grist mill and viewed by many people.

I had a lot of photos of this grist mill and made a composite so I could do it a little different than most of the photos I have seen of this grist mill.

Psalms 24:1" The earth is the Lords, and the fullness thereof, the world and they that dwelleth therein."

Until next time, I will be working on another painting and thanks for viewing my art and my newsletter.
I have several paintings in mind that I want to do.
