One of the nicest things about the Constitution Marsh overview from Boscobel at this time of year is that the foreground foliage doesn’t obscure so much of the marsh. I really enjoyed being able to paint a couple of vertical compositions there this week, instead of the usual horizontal Hudson River views that we usually see from this vantage point. With the day being heavily overcast, I searched for a strong composition to make a convincing painting.

Jamie, I like this painting. I used to canoe in the chain of lakes from Lake Luzerne up to the source. It was fun to navigate the beaver channels. Nice to see your work from the Hudson area. Gordon

Thank you so much, Gordon. Many people do canoe in the marsh, and there are also guided tours led by local outdoor-oriented businesses. Thank you so much for your comment.

Even with the winter colors to the marsh this looks inviting. You’ve got me intrigued. I have to go check out Bescobel some day soon.

Something to say?
