LAKE EDGE, PEW ISLAND IN SPRING

9 X 12, GOUACHE

Can't you just feel the cool breezes off the edge of the lake? What a gorgeous morning this was as I painted the soft play of light through the leaves, and listened to the gentle lapping of waves against the shoreline. 

Several times throughout the painting process, I just sat and let my eyes soak in the serene beauty, the stillness. 

 

As I was enjoying how the brush glided across the paper, Dennis pulled in one bluegill after another.

 

 

 He caught seven blue gill and one crappe.  Then, as we were packing up, a nearby fisherman offered Dennis his catch of over 20 bluegill. We brought them all home and they are now cleaned and in our freezer for some delicious home-cooked meals!

Have a blessed day!
