 "Saint Davids Waterwheel", 11x14, oil

Eastern University has a beautiful campus on the Philadelphia Main Line, at St. Davids. I visited there many times when my son went to school there, and later when I would come to paint the incredibly scenic ponds, flower gardens, wild geese, and magnificent old stone buildings.

But the waterwheel was always my favorite focus point. This is a late spring, early summer view, when the Tiger Lillys are blooming in June.

There are many walking paths and the surrounding neighborhood with its regal old homes also make for a painter's paradise.

The waterwheel at Eastern University in Radnor Pennsylvania is gorgeous in every season. I was fortunate to discover this beautiful campus while taking a ballet course there many years ago. Later on, my youngest son would attend Eastern for 2years, and so I had numerous opportunities to explore its delightfully beautiful campus. This is a fresh version of a scene that I did about 8 years ago.

It's always fun for me to revisit scenes that I've painted before in the hopes that I've made progress as a painter. Here is the 8 year old version of the first time I painted this scene.

I think I did a pretty good job painting the scene back in 2014!

Thanks for visiting, and hope you'll leave a comment and tell me what you think.
