Love a leaf
“Anyone can love a rose, but it takes a lot to love a leaf. It’s ordinary to love the beautiful, but it’s beautiful to love the ordinary.”

“And so with the sunshine and the great bursts of leaves growing on the trees, just as things grow in fast movies, I had that familiar conviction that life was beginning over again with the summer.”
— F. Scott Fitzgerald, “The Great Gatsby”

I went for a nature walk on a new trail that I never knew existed until now so that was fun. I captured some nice pictures of the woods, the sun light and shade.
A sudden rain
reminding me once again that I’m not in control.

sunlight on water
I love it when the river sparkles.
Getting on and off the lake
This is one of my in-process paintings.
I am using a combination of three pictures to create this one painting.
I feel like it is telling a story.
I like the look of the water and sky,
but I need to really work on the trees and obscure the buildings a little more.
This Random Lake is 10 minutes away from where I live.
I love this lake.
We go swimming here all summer.
You can catch some really nice large and small mouth bass,
and we have seen people catch and release musky.
I can’t wait to finish this painting.
I’m not a fast painter
I work in oils, so I need time in-between for my painting to dry
so, I usually have a lot of paintings going at one time.
