Painted at the Boiling Springs Lake, this is the Bucher Mansion which is not occupied. The mansion is a historic location in the heart of Boiling Springs and I think, would make a wonderful Bed and Breakfast location. Many artists have captured it's beauty in oil, pastel, drawing, watercolor and much more. On this fall day a group of plein air artists gathered to paint the fall colors at Children's Lake. I first chose the mansion because of the sunlight and shadows on the structure and the colors surrounding it only complimented it even more.
Painted with VanGogh/Royal Talens watercolors which I received as a door prize at a recent Pennsylvania Watercolor Society annual meeting; this was the first time to try these paints. I like them because they stayed fairly soft and moist during the paint out and their colors were bright and fresh. It was a windy and chilly day and a tough test for painting with water outdoors. I can say for sure, Van Gogh/RoyalTalens is a Great product!

You did a fine job painting this scene.
Nice Work, as always, LINDA!
One of my favorite places along the lake, Linda! You have done so many beautiful paintings at Children's Lake.
Thank you Sue and Claire. The fall colors won't last long for us.
