Old Oak Tree


This painting was done from photo's I took while on a hike with family in the South San Jose hills.
I scanned it and bits were cut off from the scan but you are seeing most of it.
Thank you Nancy Medina for giving me this art award! I'm honored to receive it from such a wonderful artist who has a huge passion for painting.

I am passionate about:

5. ART!!
6. Improving my art
7. Playing
