Another view of the Niagara River, where the clouds seemed bigger than the river. 

Favorite part: the dark cloud at the middle top, containing so many colors. 

Niagara River


Niagara River, 2.5" x 3.5"
Painted from a photo taken on my 30th wedding anniversary, August 7, 2016. My husband, Dan, and I stood on the rocks lining the river, holding hands, and absorbed the fresh air, comfortable breeze, and waterside view of the clouds. 

Favorite part: the sparkling water. 

Erie Canal

Japanese Garden

Akron Falls Park

Catching up here, after a half-year of little artwork. This painting was done from photos I took on a delightful day painting at Akron Falls Park, NY, last summer.
