"Lunch at the Frye"

14 x 10"

oil on wooden panel

I just received word that this painting has won an award in the Women Painters of Washington Membership Show at the Kaewyn Gallery, 10101 Main, Bothell WA. The gallery reception is Friday evening May 23rd from 5-8 p.m. Please stop by if you are in the area.

The inspiration for this painting came from a visit to the Frye Museum in Seattle. From the museum’s parking lot across the street, I saw these people having lunch in the cafe. The sunlight and shadow patterns on the trees, the walls and the people in the window took my breath away. I new I had to paint it!
