Description:  This is a wonderful oil sketch that resulted in a finished painting supposedly representing the Woman Painters of Washington enjoying a warm Summer Day on Whidbey Island, where the Camffermans lived and has an art school/colony. Housed is a period silver cove molding. This is a double-sided piece with a great depiction of what is most likely her husband Peter digging in the Garden under a blossoming cherry tree. My third image shows the reverse & my fourth image shows the larger finished painting I spoke of above for comparison.
