On The Sunny Side
9 x 12 Oil

Saturday was the culmination of the plein air event at the first annual Minnesota River Arts Fair. This painting is one of two that I entered into the culminating show and competition. It was a brutal
week with the weather being horrendously hot and there were some dedicated painters out there
every day. I admit it, I'm a wimp when it comes to hot weather but I managed to get in 2.25 days during the week. This was painted at the end of the first day.
The event was held at The Landing – Minnesota River Heritage Park, in Shakopee, MN. This 88-acre living history museum
depicts life in the Lower Minnesota River Valley from the 1840s–1890s
with authentic 19th-century buildings, demonstrations and a scenic river
trail and overlook. It was my first time visiting the park - and I only live 15 miles away! Funny how you never get out to 'site-see' in your own area!
More paintings coming up!
