Morning at the Big Lake
Last summer I found this spot at the end of Esch Road in the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. I did a small plein air painting in about an hour-and-a-half. This is a slightly different angle piece I just completed in the studio. The big dune on the right is Empire Bluffs. In the distance is South Manitou Island. It was a beautiful morning. I only saw four people in the couple of hours I was there. About a three mile long, completely natural beach. I'll go back this summer.

I am looking forward to summer and getting out to walk along the Lake Michigan shore again.
Bless you, david, for your craft and spirit. How good to see you active in your profession!
I love this view ... your interpretation is always right on. Wish I was there right now.
Great stuff David.

Thanks Doug. I forgot to answer your question from your last post about framing--yes, I frame my own. Lots of sources for frames if you need any.
