Finished

 

Stained Glass     21" X 18"   Oil

This colors of the completed painting probably look a bit different on your screen than the in-progress photos. The above is a scan of the completed painting rather than quick phone photos used for the in-progress images.

 

As I was thinking of a title I thought of how the sunlight danced across the turtle and the rocks. It reminded me of how light filters through stained glass and the rocks were reminiscent of  a cathedral's gothic columns.
