A couple of Northwood's Plein Air pieces

I've been working of several pieces for the Manito Art League show in July and I can't 'display' them in any form prior to the show. However, the last 2 weeks, I've been able to paint with the Northwoods Outdoor Artists....
Both are 8x10


The first is a view of the Thirsty Whale on Lake Minocqua. The second in a display of several 1888 cabins left at 'Cottage at Cardinals'.

A beautiful day to Paint!

We had a really great day today...started out very cool but warmed up nicely with little wind and blue sky!
We went paint at a large home on the Island which overlooks the big water of Marco Island.
