We have just received a beautiful egg tempera painting in our gallery entitled "Nesting" by one of our favorite artists, Patton Wilson.
Patton is an American Realist painter and has lived and painted in our neck of the woods for most of his life. He has exhibited widely, won numerous awards for his paintings, and is in many private and corporate art collections.
