This is another painting done in Dahlonega, Georgia en plein aire--a term I introduced in my last post which is French for "in fresh air" or as I say, painting on location.  This was done in early spring as you can tell by the spring greens.  It's springtime again and time to get out in the fresh air and paint some beautiful local scenes. 

 

Enjoy this beautiful day and thank you for stopping by.

The Chestatee on Frog Hollow Road

Oil  8x10

 

This scene is of the Chestatee River in Dahlonega, Georgia at the end of a private road called Frog Hollow.  I love the name and love the scenery.  The rapids were so beautiful and challenging to paint, especially since this was my first attempt (2 years ago) at painting moving water and plein aire painting (painting on location).  I had lots of hurdles to overcome that day, but I learned a lot.  North Georgia has so many beautiful scenes like this just waiting to be painted. 

 

Thank you for visiting today.  Have a wonderful week.
