$950.00
Three couples of different generations stroll the Iris Farm near Traverse City, Michigan in 2014. The elderly man in the foreground is directed by his wife, she with pencil and pad of paper in hand to pick out her favorites, he with an iris laden basket over his arm, following. One wonders what career he followed in life as the large watch on his sweatered arm ticks away the time he has left. Painted years later from a reference photo by the artist. Hard and soft pastel on artist sand paper. #floral #irisfarm #leelanaucounty #pastelpainting #generations #elderlypainting #pastel #irisgarden #3couples #puremmichigan
