Girl Friends in the Creek 16x20 oil painting by Margaret Aycocki

Inspiration from Anders Zorn.  I always seem to be drawn to these paintings of women in white.  Thankfully after painting this copy of Anders Zorn I began to notice that I had a few perfect subjects for a new painting right in front of me while we artsy Oklahoma girls took to the creek a couple of weeks ago.  There is nothing better than cooling off in a spring fed creek with nothing to do but look for interesting rocks, have a snack, swim and chat with girlfriends.  Life is good!  See the full process on my blog at http://margaretaycock.com

 The painting begins with this manipulated by photoshop photo of a couple of my friends at the creek ( one is pictured 2x)  The finished ( I think) painting is below.
