Description
They are a couple very much in love. They have been together for many many years. It warms my heart to see them together. The pandemic was difficult. Because of our ages and our health, we all had to be extra careful. They seldom went out during that time. They live near us and as time marched on, we began to go out together once in a while. Still, we were careful to not be around crowds of people.
Small day trips became a routine for the four of us. We still go out together to various destinations near us. Many times we found pretty places out in nature to explore. We live in the Space Coast area of Central Florida. These kinds of get-togethers were some of our favorite.
They loved the painting that I did of a couple of other friends of ours. I thought to do something similar for them. I used several photographs that I took of some of our outings to compose this 40” by 30” acrylic on canvas painting of them. This will be a surprise. I particularly had in mind North Merritt Island Wildlife Refuge as the background. It is near the Kennedy Space Center. Over the years, we have followed many a nature trail in such places. This was a good way for us to safely and enjoyably get some fresh air and exercise.
This scene has the vegetation that is typical to our area. There are many wild places with old gnarly oak trees and various kinds of palm trees. This is one such quiet and peaceful spot.

Outstanding painting. The couple sure would treasure this gift of friendship. I like how you include the face mask which is a document of that time.
