Snowy Barns

Can’t believe we’re into November already! We’ve had a wonderful fall with lots of outings to see the changing of the trees in this area. Along with spectacular scenery on the North Shore of Minnesota, our own woods here in northwestern Wisconsin put on a spectacular show. We are surrounded by large Maple trees, and they were so pretty this year. I love living in an area that has four definite seasons, and now I’m looking forward to the arrival of snow. We had a brief taste of it this past weekend when 5” of snow fell overnight. It didn’t last long, but with family here for a visit, it was such fun us to spend time building snowmen and enjoying a campfire in the snow.

And I’m beginning to think of upcoming holiday celebrations. This week’s painting, Snowy Barns 8”x10” on 300 lb. Watercolor paper, reminds me of one of my favorite activities – walking through a quiet woods and watching snow fall on a rural farm scene.
