I love the shine on the water, and the yellow blooms in the distance make me want spring to come NOW! Nice.

Hi Donna,
What a beautiful place! The reflections are just great. Have you had the chance to paint outdoors lately? I cannot wait for the first signs of soft greens on the distant trees...

Thank you Rachel and Adriana. I have not been out as we have had very cold/rainy/snowy, and now windy weather. Soon it will be more normal, whatever that is and I will be able to get out......soon.....

Did you do this from a photo? You have worked outside so much...your work always looks like "direct observation"! Beautiful.

Thank you Celeste. I did paint here on a wonderful summer day. Thus the name of Summer Song. There were many frogs serenading me this day and splashing around. Wonderful Bullfrogs. I did use my reference photo for this painting, which is not as good as my memory!
