Lake Ontario inspires us

Lunch is a good time to sit back and talk about our work. Sitting on the lakeshore and having surprise pizzas delivered is always appealing.  Thanks to Laurene for the invitation. Lots of great paintings accomplished.

Smiles at Sunflowers in Sanborn.

With a lot of painters and hundreds of acres, we came and went to lunch and had our art sharing at different times. What a joyful place, to paint and draw where children are exclaiming and parents taking photos, surrounded by sunflowers. No wonder Vincent VanGogh painted so many sunflowers.

Another 3 Sisters perfect day.

The Third Island at Niagara Falls State Park.

 Every time we go, every painting we make, everything is different. Three Sisters Islands is a treasury of beautiful views. We don't mind the many tourists who are usually very kind but all of us have anxiety when they don’t heed signs and climb the rails to get closer to the water. Those of us who live near the Mighty Niagara River give it a lot of respect. 

So, we love painting here but get to see non-readers risk their lives on slippery rocks next to a raging current. Quite the distraction!
