New painting in progress...

The ink drawing is heavy with brush marks and the scene seems to fill up with dark shadows.  On site, the flush of natural growth nearly obscures this protected location, and it is not immediately clear that the current elm tree in the center is actually a replacement for the original white oak that was burnt in a fire in 1906. We can only understand the physicality of the historic site from illustrations and photographs from the 19th and 20th centuries.  As such, this observation painting remains a vital link to our experience of this history today.
