Fall Landscape

A cloudy day with glimpses of sunlight, the Laurentians in the distance. 

Sumac’s at Nadine’s Bush

A new place to paint very near home, Nadine’s Bush

Sunday Morning, Papineau Creek

This beautiful spot on the Papineau Creek at Maynooth offered so many great painting opportunities that it was difficult to choose which composition to paint. I chose this view because I loved how the sunlight shone through some of the foliage with a beautiful warm yellow light and reflected off other spots harmonizing the whole scene. It was quiet and blissful and I was accompanied by some wonderful painters, Robert Strickland, who led the workshop, and my longtime painting buddies, Marina Laliberte and Sue Simington.

This small study was painted late afternoon in August,  the light was perfect.
