Paint Webster

 
 
 
Deer Creek

I'm honored that my painting of Deer Creek won the
Mayor's Choice Award
at the Paint Webster Plein Air Event this year.
The weather was a challenge for all with rain most of the day.  I was fortunate to get the water and the reflections painted before a steady drizzle changed it's surface. 
The railroad bridge over Deer Creek is still in use.  As you can see the date on the bridge of 1912 gives it a lot of old fashioned charm.

Cliff Cave Park
This park has such a great variety of subject matter to paint and every season creates more beautiful things to see.  I went there on Saturday and was lucky to see a large number of barges on the river.  I was fortunate that they stayed long enough for me to get this 6x8 painting.
