Beautiful, calm scene. Did you add the Great Blue Heron or was he really there?

Mary Beth, I love the way my eye is lead through this painting. It's as if I am on that boat travelling down the river, able to observe and enjoy each lovely passage.

Mary Beth--I love the coloring in the background trees and the sky--their softness makes this a peaceful scene--one any fisherman would love.

Lovely, Mary Beth -- really nice atmosphere and mood! (Not to mention skillful handling of the greens.) Great job!

Charlotte - the wildlife along the Susquehanna is very abundant. The Heron was actually there, but the fishermen were added for interest.

Absolutely lovely! Makes one want to go fishing there!

Yes, I agree with Sunny, it looks like a great place to fish. Very calm and serene. Beautiful!
