Holmen Highlights

Winding up my pursuit of paintings featuring local scenes I chose Holmen. This is the closest community to where I live. They've got a wonderful park for music in the summer, which I'm miss very much. So I wanted to make sure I highlighted the park with new and past paintings.

 Another place that amazed me about Holmen was the Halfway Creek cemetery. Learned about the history from the caretaker while our drawing group was visiting. Did this painting shortly after.

We frequent the golf course in Holmen called Drugans, a beautiful property set in between the bluffs. Hopefully I take more shots on the course with my camera than with my clubs. Inspired by my walks on the links to paint the scenery.

Another meeting place to pick up wine, gourmet cheeses and meats is the Holmen Meat Locker. A legend by itself, they have awesome jerky. I love the way they decorated out front with these little piggy statues.

My last and newest discovery in the Holmen area is the New Amsterdam Grasslands, a preserved site. One section is periodically closed for the local wildlife.
