Lake Pepin Autumn

Monday KSTP Channel 5 wanted to film me with some of my paintings of fall color. This is one of the paintings. There is an area on Lake Pepin, North of Alma, WI which is spectacular in the fall.  Lake Pepin is a widening of the Mississippi River. The glaciers missed this area when they flattened out the Midwest millions of years ago, so there are large river bluffs in this area.

Hootenanny Bread

This is the Bakery in Maiden Rock, Wisconsin. I liked the light coming through the window creating  warm and cool color contrasts.

Peonies at Lake Harriet.


I like to paint these peonies each spring, but now the tree has been cut down.

LLamas and Lambs

This is  my first blog post. This was painted on a farm in Stockholm, Wisconsin.
