A Home in Odessa

On Wednesday, every week in July and August, a group of us get together to paint on location. This day we met at the Babcock Mill in Odessa. This mill and other interesting spots are on a lovely stream that runs into Lake Ontario. I chose a house, beside the stream, in the small village of Odessa, just west of Kingston. What a lovely , warm morning, with a Kingfisher fishing on the stream and a flock of ducks busily feeding. I thoroughly enjoyed the morning. A picnic lunch together, beside the Mill, with friends made for another wonderful day. This was painted on an 11x14 Masonite board, with oils.

                  
As you can see the Queen Anne's Lace, Goldenrod and grasses were enjoying their stream side location.
