It was fun to see the submissions from my contest. Since each was worthy of a painting, everyone was a winner. Six submissions gave me a chance to share my love of painting. Each one posed a different challenge and that's just what was needed to make these cold winter days fly by.
My top picture for an 8x10 painting was from Victoria B. of her backyard view. It struck me right away the wonderful atmosphere of the mist in the distance. I've titled the paintings but they may certainly change them to something more personal.

One of Jody's getaways is Sleepy Hollow, she's quite the explorer getting out and walking the bluffs and valleys. This cabin is a real hidden treat I've heard.

The La Crosse River Marsh offers a respite for nature and Amy caught this pair of Beavers along the Grand Crossing Trail. What a moment to have enjoyed.

You may have seen Stacy and Gordo enjoying the McGilvray Trail of 7 Bridges. Even during the rain it's a great day to be out for a walk.

There's nothing truer blue than a morning glory. Garden flowers are always a welcome sight at Kalla's.
