Dining At Twigs
6x8, soft pastel
Today I finished this little piece. It is the first painting in a series of scenes in and around Meridian, Idaho...the best little "small" town in America...at least I think so. Not many years ago Meridian was truly a small town but with the explosive growth of Boise during the past 20 years, Meridian and Eagle couldn't help but follow suit. The good thing about so much growth is the newness of just about everything. New streets, new houses, new shops and restaurants...and the people in Idaho (longtime and new residents) are among the most friendly I've ever met.
This scene is the outside patio of Twigs Restaurant at The Village. The Village is a gorgeous dining, shopping and family entertainment complex that opened in 2013 and continues to expand with more and more retail spaces opening each month. Walking around The Village reminds me of Disneyland or Disney World...it is not only beautiful with fountains, sculptures, and flowers but is impeccably maintained. A great place to capture life in Meridian.
