Over the Dike, Impressionism Daily Painting

"Over the Dike"
Pein Air painting
9x12
Acrylic on hardboard

Did this painting back in November. Lake Okeechobee looks very different now. The sand bars and the mud are everywhere. The lake hasn't ever been so low, at least not that anyone has record of. I hope I can get out and paint it soon, I've been so busy with getting final exams ready and grading final projects at school that I haven't painted much lately. I am so ready for summer! smile.

This painting started as a sky-scape. Just studying the shadows in the thunderheads we had this week. We are in a severe drought, so the storms are a welcomed sight. We had half of a tree in our driveway yesterday! Took all day today to clear it.

This was a fun three week project. Most of my students really got into it, they did a great jobToo!
