This view of Lake Superior was painted en plein air while on my wonderful painting trip to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.  The clouds over the lake were beautiful that day - a perfect place to paint.

I just returned from a painting trip to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, where I painted with a group of artists for seven days.  What beautiful and diverse scenery - definitely one of my new favorite areas of the country!  After visiting Tahquamenon Falls (rhymes with phenomenon), we stopped here to paint, where the river flows into Lake Superior.  I know that I will be painting many more Michigan scenes.  Thank you for looking -
