This image is from the shore of Percy Priest Lake in Long Hunter State Park, which has always been a favorite place to draw inspiration for paintings. On a hike this weekend, I noticed that the lake had been drawn low for the winter, leaving a barren area between the woods and the water's edge. Although during the rest of the year this rocky "beach" is submerged, winter exposes its secrets, revealing mysteries and textures that could only be experienced in this solitary season.

this is the first of thousands of comments you will recieve on you blog. you work is so very wonderful.thank you for sharing!
Thanks! The paintings take different amounts of time, anywhere from 10 minutes to 40 minutes, usually. I will be holding on to them for the year and I plan to exhibit them all at once. (Mostly for selfish reasons...I would love to see a whole year's worth of work in one room!) If anyone is interested in buying one, I will be taking names & info and pass them on to the gallery before the show opens.
