This is my most recent painting, “Partners In Time”. I’ve always admired this statue at Callaway Garden’s Sibley Center and often thought how appropriate it was to celebrate weddings around it. Many wedding receptions in set up in the large conservatory behind the swans.

When swans face each other, the tilt of their heads and the soft curve of their necks form a heart. So, I think “romance” when I see swans, whether they are looking at each other or not.
