Northwoods Series

January seems a good time to focus on capturing some of the beautiful scenes of the North Shore in Minnesota. After weeks of below zero temperatures, we are enjoying a couple of days with daytime temps in the teens – and it seems like a heat wave! In fact, it was so lovely today, I found myself just leaving the back door open for little bits of time. Our pets, Maddie and Zach, thought it was wonderful – they could come and go outside at will!  

I’m working on a series of four scenes with the intention of loosely reflecting the four seasons. The first painting, Northwoods Isle, is a 5”x 7” Watercolor on 300 lb. paper, and reminds me of a spring sunset on one of the many lakes flung along the Gunflint Trail.
