PORTWING MARSH

PORT WING MARSH - Port Wing, WI  Plein Air Festival, 2022. My first, I stood for hours at the marsh. Distraction & inspiration struck, in the form of a dragon fly landing right on canvas, a frog peering from a lily pad, a sand crane striking pose and red-winged black birds landing to shake (distort) the cat tail composition. Then, there were kayakers and a bee that stayed all afternoon. This dynamic scene held makings of quite a busy composition I admit to auditioning a few of these characters.  I was hooked.  The piece is in memory of my satisfying day
