Lake Pauline Apr 9, 2018
Here in Vermont the snow is receding and water opening up.
In spite of the still chilly temps, I ventured out for a day of plein air painting last week.
I set up next to Green Mountain Sugar House on Rt 100 in Ludlow to capture this nice view of Lake Pauline.
When finished, I got a sample of fresh maple syrup straight from the boiler pan. Sweet!

Beautiful picture Peter. All of your paintings hit right at the heart. Growing up in Brandon was a wonderful life beginning – the area, friends and family. We are now on a lake in North Carolina with surroundings that resemble that of Vermont. Keep up the good work. Chuck
Thanks Chuck!
Beautiful texture to the water, and contrast with sky. I do like this one.
Thanks Karen!
As usual, you commentary is as good as the painting. I can feel spring in the air at Lake Pauline.
Thanks Deanie!
Beautiful as always Peter!
Thanks Kathy!
It takes a real talent to successfully capture the subtle difference between the appearance of spring ice on partially open water versus the look of “similar, but different” cloud reflections on a tranquil ice-free pond. Nicely done!
Thanks Brian!
Very nice Peter. I just love the color variations. So warm and spring like. Growing up in East Poultney, I love your paintings as it reminds me of images of days past.
Thanks Jim!
