Edge of the Lake no. 3

Oil on canvas, 24" x 30"   This painting is another variation of a northern Michigan lake that has been the focus of several paintings over the past 10 years.   I am leaving this piece a little unfinished for fear of overworking the  lily pads and ending up with a stiff painting that is so, so easy to have happen!

Farm at Port Onieda no.4

Oil on board, 8" x 10" -  This small work is the 4th in a series of oils of a homestead in the Sleeping Bear Dunes park in northwestern Michigan.  I have purposely left it loose with not a lot of detail because it is more of a study in color and composition.  Chances are good that this piece will be developed into a larger painting in the near future.
