Last week I met up with friend and artist Michele Maule, to finish a trade we started a while back. She painted the oil painting on wood panel on the left, and I made the rusted steel on the right. We draw inspiration from similar places for our art, so it was fitting that we trade a piece of the same water tower.

Michele is very talented artist. I've always admired her ability to capture feeling and mood in her images. Check out www.etsy.com/shop/michelemaule to see her available work.
