Lakeshore Park Original Plein Air Oil Painting

Lakeshore Park is an impressionist oil painting that celebrates the beauty of spontaneous creation at the HGTV Overlook in front of the old Tennessee Asylum. Painted in a single, intuitive session, outdoors at Lakeshore Park in Knoxville, Tennessee, this original artwork captures the peaceful and longing energy of the enchanting view of the Great Smoky Mountains Park beyond Lakeshore's borders, where soft blues and greens rest easily in August.

In this alla prima painting, we see two small roads, a magnificent magnolia tree, and the Tennessee River meandering by as the Great Smoky Mountains National Park whispers through the mist in the distance, which has been the view of park goers, asylum patients before that, and even more native and ancient humans before that.

Perfect for garden lovers, art collectors, and those who appreciate the fusion of the love of horticulture and emotional expression, this piece invites viewers to pause, breathe, and feel the beat of the blooms.
