Clear Lake


As a demonstration for my outdoor painting workshop, I did this painting right beside the park office building. I was attracted by the intense color and light of the early morning hours. The few tall and handsome aspen trees and elms and spruce,sanding like a sentry against the blue sky and lake was visually counterbalance by the horizontal sweep of the lake front as well as by the casting shadows of the trees. I really enjoyed the chatting with passers-by who were all so curiouse by the sight of a group of painters who painted right on location. At the end of the day each of us did a lovely painting.
