I was scouting around Michipicoten looking for the location where my artist friend Lawrence Nickle painted "Michipicoten Harbour". I did not find his vista but this point on the north side of the Michipicoten River caught my eye.
I had taken Government Dock Road hoping to find some great subject matter to paint later. It was raining much too hard to paint en plein air. I liked the view looking southward from the beach to the point on the north side of the Michipicoten River. There was informative and interesting signage throughout the village. I read most of them. Michipicoten is a word in the Ojibwe language that means "big bluffs". I was very careful not to intrude on private property. A guide would have been helpful.
For this and much more art, please click on Pixels. Thank you!
