My friend and fellow artist and flyfisherwoman Jeanne McKinney and I went out painting together at the Little Juniata River in Huntingdon County. The river was up after heavy rains last week, yet we managed to find 'perches' on the banks to set up our easels. The sun light up the river, and a bridge across it, and it felt wonderful to be outdoors immersed in earth and sky and water, and painting the magical colors and movement in this special location, and to share the experience. Here's Jeanne painting at the spot she found at the water's edge:

Alice,
ReplyDeleteI would love to see some of your "j" paintings. Jim Litrun told me he met these awesome lady flyfishin artists, a rare combination. I am particularly inspired to photograph the stone arch trestles along the river. Do you have a painting with a "j" trestle in it? Our next LJRA meeting is the second Tuesday in November. Please do join us. Check our website gallery at www.littlejuniata,org

Hi Bill! Thanks for your interest in my artwork, and yes, I DO have a painting of a Little J trestle bridge underway! I'm expecting to finish it within the next few days, and will be happy to email a photo of it to you if you'd like. If so, please contact me at alice@alicekelsey.com so that I will have your email address. There are also images of paintings of Spruce Creek and Honey Creek which I've recently completed on my website (www.alicekelsey.com). My friend Jeanne also has a website if you'd like to see her work.
ReplyDeleteI'm happy to know about the activities of the Little Juniata River Association, and hope to attend the Nov. meeting. Thanks for getting in touch!
