My Ice Cream Adventure Captured on Canvas.

You might remember this scene from a few weeks ago. This is John Gnatek, local artist extraordinaire, painting the facade of Mt. Tom's as part of the Plein Air art competition during last month's ArtWalkEasthamton. It turned out to be a great event, with over 40 amazing entries. Although John didn't win, his was a crowd favorite, and certainly a favorite of mine. So much so that I had to make the purchase...


It does show the 'pre-facelift' color scheme of the shop, but it's still pretty darn cool. I had to sell a few extra cones last month to pay for it, but I think it'll look great on a wall in that retirement cabin on a lake thirty years or so from now...

Nicely done John. Thanks for choosing my shop to paint.
