Photo of the Week
 |
| Otter Creek Park |
Look at those classy shades of green. Mesmerizing, they are to this artist (that doesn't like to paint big green landscapes). The wavey reflections soften the scene. The light is just right in the photograph.
The trees are on the northeastern side of the park where you can drive down to. On the other side of the creek, at the boat launch area, there are picnic tables as well as a hiking path.
Have a good last week of June 2023. Clean out the coolers. Dust off the straw hats. Select your picnic dining utensils and insulated water glass.
Buy Sunscreen &
Bug Repellent!
PS...1:11 PM EDT there is a thunderstorm and downpour over Vergennes.
Beautiful photo
ReplyDeleteI have such a tough time painting good greens. These would be tough but they're wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThat is one awesome photo. Love all the green and the reflection of the trees in the water. Yes, Summer is here!.....have a good season. We had some thunderstorms earlier this month also.

Thank you Kathy
ReplyDeleteThe photo was a surprise when I uploaded it.
Jeanie,
ReplyDeleteYou aren't alone. Painting greens is challenging.
There are good Youtube videos showing how to mix greens.
Sheri,
ReplyDeleteThe water reflections are good to use for learning how to paint water.
More thunderstorms passed through here this afternoon. I think they are finished for the day.
Several thunderstorms rolled through here yesterday but we were glad of the rain that came along with them.
ReplyDeleteThe photo of the week is beautiful but my thoughts turn to how to translate it into fabric rather than paint. I won't be attempting it, but fun to contemplate anyway.
Maryanne,
ReplyDeleteIt boggles my mind transferring the photo into a quilt.
For a water study, it is a good resource.
As I type, I hear thunder from a storm cell just east of here. The rain is nice. The humidity is tolerable.
Beautiful photo ~ Wow!

Love the colour green on the water especially. The light is perfect!
ReplyDeleteMarie,
ReplyDeleteI feel fortunate to capture a scene with so much green that I actually like.
The photo feels impressionistic.
ReplyDeleteWilliam,
ReplyDeleteGood eye. It does look impressionistic.
And sure will be if I ever finish a painting of it. lol
