The last Super Moon of 2025

One of the best parts of painting nocturnes is when we have a full moon. This painting was from Thursday December 4. We had finished up our burgers at Trempealeau Hotel and stopped for a photo opportunity off Hwy 35 on County Rd. M. Maybe you recognized this road 

 
Cold Moon of  December 8x10 oil unframed SOLD

My New Years Resolution is to paint every full moon in 2026. Now the search is on as to where I'll capture if in it's full glory and figuring out when in the nighttime it appears. If it's cloudy out I'll just have to paint what the moon illuminates.

Next full moon painting to follow Saturday. January 3, peak at 5:03 am
