Artist Betty Hadfield, “Labor Day, 2009", 18" X 36", Oil on Canvass, Framed $725; Unframed $625

The summer is coming to a close. The final official weekend before school starts, before the occasional cool evenings and days

of autumn begin. There will be "Indian Summer" days but none as predictable as Labor Day. Its a time to gather friends and relatives

and enjoy a day at the beach. Captured on canvass for all time, this painting reflects the serene calm of the lower Chesapeake Bay

and the relaxation that comes through sharing time with friends.
