Adirondack Invitation

I saw these green Adirondack chairs sitting on a shady lawn in the small, almost non-existent town of Laws, located in the Owens Valley of California.  Their color was set off by the dark of the leafy shadows behind them.  Upon closer examination, however, I found to my dismay that they were a plastic version of the real thing!  Oh well, I thought, I still could do an interesting painting that was as much about color harmony as it was about an American classic.  This is one of two paintings I did.
