Fox River/Lieutenant River

"Fox River/Lieutenant River"
12" x 12"
Oil on canvas panel
I saw this image in a stack of photos and flipped it over to see the words "Fox River, East Troy, Wisconsin.  I needed to paint it.  It looks just like my favorite place in Old Lyme, Connecticut on the Lieutenant River where the American Impressionists painted in Florence Griswold's back yard.   


This painting was painted very quickly. I blocked in the various sections, established my sky, water and land masses. I know this place... well one of them, anyway, and I love it there. Painting it was like going on a trip.

See it in my Gallery on Dailypaintworks.com.  It's for sale via PayPal or on the DPW auction.

Thank you so much for looking today.
