Beautiful original oil on canvas painting by artist Mellye Hayes, dated 2000. The work depicts two figures enjoying a peaceful day of fishing on a small boat along a lush, tree-lined lake. Rich tones of green, blue, and gold capture the sunlight glistening on the water and the warmth of summer foliage. The artist’s handwritten note on the back identifies the scene as “Marilyn & Mark fishing,” lending a charming personal touch and a story behind the artwork. Hayes’ brushwork conveys a sense of calm movement and nostalgia, reminiscent of plein air Impressionism with a Southern charm. Set in a simple oak frame that complements the natural tones of the scene. Perfect for adding a touch of rustic serenity to a lake house, study, or cozy living space.
