Along Mill Creek

Along Mill Creek
Oil on panel, 10x8
Mill Creek Park
I met my daughter and grandson at this new park in Belton - just south of Mill Creek Upper Elementary today with the puppy.  If I want him to be good for a while, I must first walk him for at least 30 minutes.  We were there for an hour and a half - and he has been asleep ever since, allowing me to complete this painting from today's trip!  This park has a wonderful walking trail surrounded by woods, and various turns of the creek, and even a lake with a boat ramp, docks and a bridge.  I found several landscapes to paint right off the bat, and all it takes is wearing out the puppy first!  A beautiful gray day for painting, this is number 456 in as many days.

    So lovely and serene, another gorgeous work! I remember those days when our Grace was a pup, always sleeping after a long trek but it got us out there. Enjoy your walks in nature and the little one.

    the colors and the reflections in the river are amazing Tammie. How I'd love to sit by your side and just watch you create your magic on a canvas!

    Tammie this is excellent! I love the way you have shown depth and the water looks just like water here in OR.
