Brice Praire Inspiration

Blues on the Prairie  11x14 oil

In the Town of Onalaska is Brice Prairie, just a few minutes from my home. I continue to discover new places on the Prairie for inspiration,, it always amazes me how big it really is and how many beautiful areas to paint. From the Great River State Trail, National Refuge and Prairies, to capturing life on the river.

Here's some of my latest paintings inspired by Brice Prairie from the end of summer. Any question cshoreartwork@gmail.com

A favorite place to visit on the Prairie is Red Pines Bar & Grill on Lake Onalaska. The stunning view and welcoming atmosphere make it a favorite spot for a refreshment or meal. I couldn't resist asking Corinna, the owner, permission to paint. Every day it changes and it's hard to say what the best time of year is. With their heated patio, music on the deck

They are continuing to develop the property. I hear you can rent a room in the building next to it and word has it a cafe will be opening sometime next year.
