Midwest Morning 8x10 oil on board


 This is a reworking of a previous painting-a bright dawn during Indian summer is casting a bright glow on the distant trees and march grass in the foreground. A mist is rising from the water, reflecting differences between the air and water temperature. The trunk of the birch trees on the distant shore-between two firs grabs our attention. This was done predominately with brush with palette knife to affect the textures of the foreground marsh.
