Artist Joe Murray of Jefferson shares his painting, “Nature’s Carpet.” “As summer is upon us, I thought it might be appropriate to do a painting of God’s flowers,” Murray said. “No, I never will get close to the beauty and intricacy of Mother nature, but just maybe I can capture the spirit and wonderment of His domain.”
Murray used separate layers of watercolor and acrylic paint on gallery wrap watercolor canvas for the painting.
Murray will unveil the painting at “The Summer of the Arts” art show in Iowa City June 6-8. He said he always welcomes comments about his painting, as that’s how he continues to learn. He can be contacted at wayuga@netins.net
