Vermont Field

We were returning from a road trip to Maine and decided to drive straight across the state on Route 2 instead of south to DC.  We visited all the towns and wildflowers, it was August. Drove past Mt Washington in the fog but when we reached Vermont it was hard to believe the beautiful fields and farms and light.  The state just wanted me to sit and paint. "Vermont Field" is one of these paintings. I watched the farmer mow these beautiful lines in the hillside just after a brief shower. This painting was used to compliment an article in Northern Woodlands Magazine last year.
