Title
That Certain Place
Artist
Rand Burns
Medium
Painting - Oil On Canvas
Description
From his childhood, daddy remembered this place and took me there with easel and canvas for the day. Alone in this secluded oasis was paradise...only the smell of oil paints, the feel of the brush on canvas and the sound of birds...away from crowds, city and noise. Forgetting to bring water, and surrounded by undrinkable water is a bittersweet memory now. What I wouldn't give to relive it. 'Past memories are paradise of the mind'.

Revisiting this lovely work, Rand. At a brief glance, it looked like the second tree on the left has "arms" spread out like it's trying to dance! (No, I haven't been drinking! :o) ) Great work, my friend! LF

Nancy Griswold
Such a nice memory you have shared, although I wish you had some water with you. I think paintings are always so much more that just paintings, they hold our history, our souls and life's moments, our interpretations and perceptions, and our connections and connection to nature too (which I feel when looking at this painting). F/L
Rand Burns replied:
Ha. You read the description. Water water everywhere and not a drop to drink. Yep, the painting was fun, but whew so thirsty. Past memories are paradise of the mind they say. Past pain is pleasure I have often heard too. Thank you for the F/L here Nancy.
Marian Bell
This is such a lovely place to have shared time with your dad, Randy; what special memories you have! My dad used to take me with him to use the mimeograph machine at his office when I was very young (4 or 5). I was amazed watching a blank piece of paper adhere to the drum on one side and have something on it when it came off the drum. Years later, he gave me a camera after high school. Put the two together, and you get what I do, although not on a mimeograph machine! Thanks for sharing the memory of this place, Randy! L/F
Rand Burns replied:
Marian, thank you for your comment on this special moment and thank you also for sharing your special memory with your dad. I am glad you enjoyed this work. I appreciate it and the F/L so much.
