"Ole Buttermilk Sky" for the 5th Annual 20/30 show

Painting of the day - "Ole Buttermilk Sky"

"Ole Buttermilk Sky"
6"x6" acrylic and mixed media on hardboard

Found youtube videos of Hoagie Carmichael singing this while playing the piano - it's always good to hear the song while I'm painting - it transports me to America in the fifties. I'm loving painting this Jazz series - It really makes me feel like I have a taste of my Grandparent's lives when they were my age, and what they listened to while they went along with their daily activities.
