Near the cottage in Paradox Lake, NY is another lake called Schroon Lake (pronounced Scroon) which is much larger. I took some photos near the boat launch in Horicon this past autumn.
Painting and drawing was a major part of my life as a child but dissapeared during my teens and through my life as an adult working fulltime in the corporate world. The awakening came one day at the office when I realized that I had to return to art, quit and took a partime job. I began classes at a local art league and painting at home.
Another awakening arrived when I had my first intimate encounter with a dairy cow. Then there was the interview with Temple Grandin...no more eating these beautiful creatures or anything with a mother. My goal is to depict these non-human animals as the sentient, beautiful beings that they are. That's it.
Another special landscape with trees as focus. Love how you use your blues and grays to get that special light,
