Step back in Time



Pastel on Canson - 12.5x10; Matted 18x15

SOLD

This painting is a rendition completed in 2008 from a plein air sketch done at the Alpine Grove Plantation State Park - looking north toward the original plantation house. The house was being restored when the painting was done, so naturally the construction scaffolds and equipment were deleted from the painting. 

This house is on a high bank above the St. Johns River commanding a glorious view of the river.
