Post 107: Spring in Occoquan, 12 x 12 Acrylic Stretched Canvas

Painting Name: Spring in Occoquan

Years ago, my mom and I came up to shop in Occoquan. There used to be a miniature dollhouse store, the Christmas shop and some really quaint stores that we loved browsing in. Both of those are long gone now...

SKU: 04BI21ACL2
Medium: Acrylic
Size: 12x12 Stretched Canvas
Framed?: Yes, Framed with a simple antique gold and black floating frame
Edition Year: 2021
Check Availability and Prints on my Etsy Shop

What Brought About this Painting?
One of my goals is to do some paintings of local places - around Woodbridge, Virginia and in Virginia in general. If you have seen some of my previous work (see on the Blog or on Etsy) I have painted the Marina at Belmont Bay, Great Falls National Park, Virginia Beach and the Main Beach at Blue Ridge Shores in Louisa, Virginia thus far. Now I can add Occoquan to the list! 

And what is prettier than that wee park in Occoquan as you drive onto Mill Street?!

Mamie Davis Park is right in the very quaint township of Occoquan, about 4 miles from me. Some great shops and dining experiences have come and gone over the years but its always a great place to be. 



Now, what's next on the agenda to paint!

I do like local - Virginia, subjects and Occoquan is such a nice subject!

Wednesday, April 21, 2021 8:46 PM After spending a couple weeks on my last painting, it is kinda nice to have one coming together a lot quicker...then again, the size is a LOT smaller.

It still needs a lot of detail but its coming together I think. How many of you out there in the Blogosphere have been to Occoquan? Do you know this spot? It is very pretty for small weddings - I have been to one here before myself.
