Colton Pond Nov 24, 2025
Today’s painting depicts Colton Pond, just off Rt. 100 in Killington.
Mapquest has a very nice description: “Colton Pond is a serene natural oasis located in Killington, Vermont. Surrounded by lush greenery and stunning mountain views, this park offers visitors a peaceful retreat for outdoor activities such as hiking, fishing, and picnicking. With its tranquil waters and picturesque landscape, Colton Pond is the perfect spot to unwind and connect with nature.”
I found all that to be true on a recent visit, setting up a few feet from the water for this late-autumn shoreline view.
Happy Thanksgiving!

I never knew its name until today. Colton Pond. How right you are it is a “serene oasis” that I passed daily one fall driving to my teaching job in Woodstock. It was a familiar feeling seeing your artistry and knowing I’d been there before I read the caption. Thank you for renewing my old memories of one of the most peasant drives EVAH!
Thank you Beth!
Really love this painting,, your style changes all the time it seems, The pop of yellow and the mountains in the background, Just a lovely scene.
Thank you Lenor!
