AUTUMN IS UPON US

EARLY AUTUMN REFLECTIONS

I went hiking yesterday with my camera. It was one of those mid-western autumn days that we sometimes get that just feels like a change is about to happen.  Sure enough, today has been rainy and cloudy all day,  a sure sign that the seasons are changing.  This small work is from the hike, and features one of my favorite rivers,  the Olentangy, which happens to be the designated scenic river that runs through Columbus. I loved how the board flat rocks form the bed of the river, making for a great area to stand when the river is low.  With all of the rain today, I won't see this view for quite awhile.

ENJOY!!

ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL DAY TO PAINT

ANTRIM At The Olentangy

This morning I had the pleasure of painting outdoors at Antrim Park before the rain..  We chose to paint from the other side of the river.  The water level is down right now and we were able to stand out in the middle on a gravel bar that gave us views looking up and down the river.  The photo below shows where I was standing.

As we were painting we were greeted by this little lady as she sauntered across the river to the woods on the other side.

ENJOY!!other beautiful day to paintOTHER
