This composition from 2 sketches done our trip to Stockton for Gramma Ruth's reunion. This takes me to a time when she was a kid down on "the Turnback". It is mostly forgotten now, though 2 or 3 generations have since grown up on the property and no doubt played in "Gum spring" just like Gramma did. I am sure the old log cabin has returned to the earth. Maybe there is a barn, a silo or a shed to save a truck for a later, a... a... I hear the breeze through the grass and the trees. Maybe there is a chicken hawk perched up there and waiting for a rabbit. This painting was done on the 7th of September. It was done on Fluid cold press 140 lb paper.
