Above you see a painting of the lake at sunset with a lone fisherman. I moved to the lake about six years ago and this is my first attempt at painting what is right in front of me. I believe it took that long for it to become embedded in my subconscious because all of a sudden intuitively my ability to paint the lake came together. I thought it was fear that prevented an attempt to paint the lake but actually it was just a matter of time. I have found that if I am patient things eventually fall into place.
