Morning Sail 05152016

I painted this piece last weekend after my visit to MIAD to see the Senior exhibit and to the Milwaukee Art Museum to see their special exhibit of landscape paintings.  It is warmer in the painting than it is here in Port Washington, however, the brave Wisconsin sailors are out on the lake enjoying the sun today.
I planted some annuals on Friday, taking a chance on Mother Nature being kind enough to keep our low temperatures above 32.  It was close last night, but it seems my flowers survived the night.

Two Paths into One 05012016

A painting with no lake, no river, no pond is not what you were expecting from me. Two paths merge into one that leads into the valley between these hills.  A warm day in late Spring invites you further into the countryside. A clear sky gives you a promise that you will not get wet before you return to your starting place.
