"The Problem Solvers" oil on panel 16" x 20"

This group of workers, seemingly perplexed by what's in the hole, really caught my eye. The arrangement of lights and darks and those vivid colors made for an interesting arrangement. It's also featured in my profile in the January 11th edition of the Asheville Citizen-Times newspaper. To read the full article, click on the link below! Happy New Year to all, and thanks for following my blog!
