#2762 "Welcome to the Lake"

#2762 "Welcome to the Lake"
10x10 inches oils on canvas
The morning was clear so I decided to head out to paint somewhere near home. I set up my easel along Long Reach Lane just over the high ridge that forms the backbone of Long Reach and separates Red Horse Lake from Singleton. The lane was really icy. I was attracted by the "Welcome to the Lake" sign that indicated that there was a special summer place full of memories just ahead. 

An icy lane leading to the cottage. 
The glimmer of the sun faded and the southwesterly breeze developed. It was snowing just to the northeast. 

The sounds of spring filled the air. Plein air painting can be special. I was prepared to move my field easel should anyone arrive. No one did. It was just me and nature.

Warmest regards and keep your paddle in the water,
