Nine Springs

Monday was so nice it was hard not to at least try to paint something. I have a new dog and love going to the dog park out there. I hope she settles into a painting buddy. I was on the boardwalk at Nine Springs for a couple hours and also had wind issues. :) The painting itself has few redeeming qualities. I don't want the first of the year to be the best you know.

Start of Spring Painting

We've had a few decent days of weather and on one of them I went to Vilas Park and found this spot just downstream of the dam (where the muskie are currently jumping).  The painting is of a portion of the dam. And I can tell it's really spring ... had an unexpected gust of wind blow over my easel.

Hoping to get the first group outing set up soon but today it's snowing and so I'm holding off just a bit more.
