Another 8 x10 oil on panel painted along the North River outside of the town of Val David in the Laurentiens. In my more recent paintings I have been trying to keep in mind the one thing that struck me when I first saw the scene. This feature, if it is not obvious, is the bright blue reflection in the middle ground. I had fun playing with all the other elements, such as the reflections but they all ended up being less important than the blue patch.
In the next post we will head off to my second year at "Brush with Highlands" a plein air painting weekend in the Haliburton Highlands north of Toronto.
