"Summer Play Time at the Lake"

This past weekend, I painted and played at Lake Wawasee & Lake Webster in northern Indiana with about thirty other artists at a paint-out by the Indiana Plein Air Painters.  Nothing says "summer" quite like sunny skies, a warm breeze, water, boats.  This quick, little 6" x 8", alla prima oil is of "Honky Bridge", as the locals call it, since the underpass is only wide enough for one boat at a time.   I caught the morning sun at about 11am, just as it peaked over the top of the bridge.  Yum!  In the afternoon, we found Webster Lake full of party boats, and ski dos, with some of them congregating at this island and jumping overboard for a swim.

"Summer Play Time at the Lake", oil, 9" x 12".   Hope you're finding time to play this summer too!
