    If you haven't seen the two-DVD set, "The Impressionists", you don't know what you're missing!

    I rented it from Netflix and absolutely loved it. It is an enactment of the lives of Monet, Renoir, Manet, Cezanne, Degas, and other Impressionist painters living at that time around Paris. Fascinating and eye-opening!

It is from this exact spot that Thomas Cole painted his famous Lake With Dead Trees, and Jasper Cropsey created his beautiful sunset scene. In fact, it is one of the sites along the “Hudson River School Art Trail”. I love returning to this location at all times of day and under different atmospheric conditions. Today I was drawn here by the strong cloud formations. It’s a very cool-toned landscape in the spring and summer, so I selected a spot with some warm foreground colors, and threw some of that warmth into the sky as well.

Lovely! ‘Been in that very location many a time.
