Pettibone's Gazebo

 

Pettibone's Gazebo 8x10 oil
Among the many islands on the Mississippi River, Barron Island home to Pettibone Park lies just west of La Crosse. This beautiful old  Gazebo is fortunately raised up enough to survive the spring flooding. It's copper onion dome has a wonderful patina and the  sandstone sets it off from the greens.

Always wanted to paint this beauty and on Wed. I had the perfect day and company to try plein air.
