Bryan Webb Landscape in Oils Raleigh NC

June 2, 2020 / 14x11 Oil on canvas / Raleigh Landscape Artist

My Friday night, take out fish dinner at the Mayflower restaurant is the catalyst for this next painting. Bryan Webb, a person on the wait staff, works at the counter taking orders. Bryan, at the time, was 16 years old. Bryan, being a very friendly person always made my experience with Mayflower, a pleasant one.

On one particular Friday, while waiting for my food, Bryan and I began a chit chat on how our day was going. Bryan right away took interest in my being an artist. Well being the exhibitionist I am, I took the opportunity to show off some of my work from my phone gallery, and in turn Bryan shared some of his photography with me.

The painting you see here is one of the images Bryan shared with me. I thought it was a beautiful typical North Carolina landscape. In return for the use of his photo, I had a copy of the painting printed for him. Bryan texted me a shot of how he proudly hung the print over his computer desk.
