“Late Summer Reading” (oil on canvas) by D. Brent Burkett
In the backyard, sitting under the plumtree with a good book, is the setting for “Late Summer Reading,” an oil painting by Springfield artist D. Brent Burkett. He paints Oregon life, illustrates children’s magazines and books, and just completed a mural for the city of Springfield. His paintings are available through the Alder Gallery in Coburg and Artspace Gallery in Bay City.
“Living in the Northwest, close to many beautiful places, is an opportunity. I am thankful to be able to paint everyday.”
