High Water at Tioronda Falls

It felt so wonderful today to have sun and warm temperatures! I headed over to Beacon to test drive my new SunEden easel setup at Tioronda Falls, in Madam Brett Park. That’s Mount Beacon in the painting. This is Fishkill Creek, very near where it empties out into the Hudson River. The falls were absolutely exquisite with all the recent rain we’ve had, and the SunEden performed quite well. It certainly doesn’t have all the bells and whistles of my Soltek, but it only weighs three and a half pounds, and can support a large canvas! It has a shelf to set down a palette (or you can use the shelf itself as a palette) and a box that clamps on to hold all my paints and brushes. It will be great for those out-of-the-way painting locations that aren’t so close to the car. Everything fits in a backpack and it is light, light, light!

I loved painting this scene. Definitely going back soon!

Wonderful painting Jamie! I love the falls and the rush of water. You really must have enjoyed the break in the weather..it shows in your work! 🙂
You might want to post a few pix of your new SunEden Easel set up to paint! I’d love to see what it looks like! Always enjoy seeing your work! Corinne

Rene, thanks so much!!!

Corinne, I was going to take a pic, but my camera died on me! I think it just needs to be recharged, but I left my charger at my place upstate. Grrrr…. I’ll see if I can get a photo of it posted soon. You can see it on the SunEden site.
