Good Morning Folks,

This is the start of the third painting in the “Amish Series”. I have drawn a sketch on tracing paper that is accurate as to what will be the size of the subject matter for the third painting, moved it into position on a 16 X 20 canvas, and used masking tape (you can see the four pieces.) to hold it while I transfer it to that canvas. The details of the sketch are roughly in the right relationship to each other, but will likely change somewhat when I begin to paint.

Below is how I intend for the three paintings to be displayed when they are all completed. The 20 inch height will be parallel in the three paintings.

Of course, what I intend, and how the eventual owner decides to hang them remains to be seen.
