Shenandoah River Floods

Posted in Small Town Life, tagged , on June 4, 2018| Leave a Comment »

20180603_185925.jpgThe Shenandoah River flowed over it’s banks yesterday after we got another 4 inches of rain.  The ground is so saturated from rain all last month so this just pushed it out further.  Many people have flooded basements and yards.  We are hoping that the rain has stopped for a while and that the sun will soak up some of this water. The photo above is looking east at the South Fork of the Shenandoah River on the right and the banks overflowed on the left.  Below is the North Fork of the Shenandoah River looking west. That’s the river on the left and the flooded bank on the right.  Wow!20180603_190815-1.jpg

This painting I did as a sample for an upcoming private Paint Party.  I did two versions, one a little darker than the other.  Later I took the cloud out of the 2nd one to show options.  I will have to share a photo of that tomorrow as I forgot to take a photo.

Shenandoah River State Park

Posted in Serendipity, Travel, tagged , on July 12, 2015| 3 Comments »

I am taking a mini vacation right in my own backyard. The Shenandoah River State Park is just about 8 miles from my house but feels like it’s a million miles away when you are here. It is just lovely. I spent an hour hiking this morning and got some great reference photos for painting.   More to come as I recharge my battery.
