January on the Hudson


12x18





A few weeks ago we drove across the country to stay at our Adirondack home for a couple of months. We had the grand kids here for a week and now that it's quiet I have a chance to paint. I don't have a studio here, but I set up a space in the main room, where there's great light. I've been painting from my photos, some of which I just took and some from last year. There is so much beauty here in the winter. This painting is a scene of the turn in the Hudson in Johnsburg, near North Creek. I took the photo last week, on a very cold day. We thought we might get snow, but it never did snow that day. The dogs loved getting out of the car and walking in the snow.
