Item Description

Original watercolor with decoupage features a quaint, colorful church scene painted by the late local artist, John C. Menihan. Bright, warm, marbled colors depict a pleasant summer afternoon, featuring a peaceful sky and fresh grass. A sense of cool freshness flows from the mixed blues and greens, and a warmth rises from the crisp, bright oranges and yellows. An old man, supported by a cane, walks his dog past the beautiful, organic church, giving off a pleasant sense of companionship and domesticity. The use of bright, blended colors really brings this simple, but elegant, piece to life. This piece would bring a lovely, small-town look to any home. This framed and matted watercolor is 15'' by 18'' in size.
