Late Winter Afternoon (B)

This creek is just across the road from the St. Jacobs market.
Bridging the Creek
Typical of small bits of landscape in the Muskoka region of Ontario, this piece of colours caught my eye. Perhaps it was the hues, some of which are almost pink, maybe the spidery skeleton of the fallen tree just off Limberlost Lodge Road, but there was some response in me. From the time that I was sixteen when I had painting lessons from M.F. Kousal, I have felt that I should paint some of the wild country in the Canadian Shield. I have never made a concerted effort to pursue that feeling. Perhaps laziness on my part has kept me from making the effort.

This is also a demonstration I did at the Southampton Art School. See also To the Trail, Image # P0929.
