A Pond Painting

Today I went out to the Ben Hawes Park, Rudy Mines Trails area. It's mostly used by mountain bikes, but hikers are allowed and I like the area. It's about as woodsy as I can get close to home.

I walked back to a pond that I have painted previously and chose a different view. The day was warm but an overcast grey sky dominated.

After staking out my spot, setting up, and spraying insect repellent (the ticks are out now), I started in.

I spent about an hour and a half on it and felt it was time to move on.
