"Cove at Mount Vernon"

6x8, Oil on museum board

Again, I went out to paint what was there without driving all over, hoping I would be inspired. If painting is learning to see, then the picture is probably right in front of me. I stood in the picnic area of Riverside Park and wished at first that I could see that cove without that little tree sticking up on the bank in front of me. Now I'm kind of glad it was there.
