Description |
Watercolor painting untitled by Marjorie Van Wickle Lyon. Painting depicts a fall landscape featuring a bright red maple tree among several other fall trees. A grey barn surrounded by colorful shrubs sits on a knoll with rolling hills in the background . Colors are red, green, yellow, grey and tan. As a child Marjorie took painting lessons one summer with Mrs. Lulu Pratt, and another with Hannah Drury, both of Bristol. One of her earliest watercolors was done in 1897 when she was 13. Another watercolor dates to around 1900 when she was 16 years old. Marjorie's love of painting blossomed in her late 60's after her husband, George Lyon, died. |
