860 Looking East: 6:37 p.m. at Fred & Fuzzy's

Door County has the most breathtaking views of sunsets over Green Bay.  There is a popular restaurant in Sister Bay Door County, Wisconsin called Fred & Fuzzy's where you can sit outside and

enjoy the beautiful sunsets along with good food and a beautiful atmosphere.  

What I have discovered is that when the sun is setting in the west, sometimes the view is even more beautiful if you look to the EAST.  That is the view you are seeing here.  I thought it was spectacular!

I wasn't sure the actual intensity of the colors would be believable, so I modified them a little, so imagine the tree trunks even more vibrant than they are here!  Mother Nature has an amazing color palette!

828 Just For Fun

This was so much fun!!  I've been working on some LARGE paintings that are very detailed, so as a relief/distraction, I thought it would be fun to do something completely crazy (for me).  I put plastic on the floor and used the extra paint from my palette and lots of medium, squirt bottles and hot water from the shower.  I painted layer upon layer, alternating with hot water showers, and a final coating of white paint, then another shower.  All of this was painted with my fingers!

Just for fun---that was what this was all about.  A new painting is almost finished and I hope you will like it.  I need to look at it with "fresh eyes" several times a day for a few days.
