Betula Lake Fishing Lessons

Yesterday was a great day. I finally finished a piece that I love. I went to get it framed today and I'm so happy that it turned out. This is my third chalk pastel and my first landscape in the medium. I used sabretooth paper--a very heavy paper. John Le Flock, my teacher, guided me through the process over the course of a few weeks.  I can't wait to see it framed!

This is a painting based on a picture I took at my Uncle Cris' cabin at Betula Lake, Manitoba. It's a gorgeous location. Uncle Cris and my cousin Michael were teaching my nephew how to fish. My parents were also there enjoying the beautiful sunset.
