History of a Painting - Acworth House.
Acworth, Georgia
Acrylic Painting by Larry Johnston©
When I first moved from California to Georgia in 1983 and started exhibiting my work, I found a nice show in Bartow County in the community of Acworth, which sits along the shores of Lake Allatoona. As I looked for a subject to paint, I found several. One painting from the area, was "The Gathering Place", which was an old shed. To compliment the subject matter the I was painting at that time, was the Acworth house, which was an abandoned home in the area.
