Lake Champlain and the Adirondacks, Cascading Winter Light

l

LAKE CHAMPLAIN AND THE ADIRONDACKS, CASCADING WINTER LIGHT
painting by Kevin Macneil Brown, watercolor on paper, 2012.


The view from the rocks at Oakledge in South Burlington, Vermont, has become for me a vital center: ever-changing; ever-revealing the compelling mysteries of water, mountains; time, space, spirit. This painting comes from a wind-swept afternoon when the water, sky, and land were saying something other-worldly to me.

Champlain Islands, Early December

Champlain Islands, Early December--Painting by Kevin Macneil Brown, watercolor on paper, 2011


The end of a year is approaching, with winter light and shadow finding-- and changing-- the shores and waters of Lake Champlain. I would like to take the time to thank all of you who journey with me in image, word, and music, sharing the mystery, beauty, and inspiration of this amazing inland sea.

Winooski River, November

Winooski River, November--
Painting by Kevin Macneil Brown, watercolor and pencil on paper.




The Winooski flows to Lake Champlain. It has become my home river. This fall, its bends and turns and light and shadow have called me to explore and paint it often.

Lake Light, Early November

LAKE LIGHT, EARLY NOVEMBER- painting by Kevin Macneil Brown, watercolor and pencil on paper.


November is one of my favorite months for painting. I love the way the light--and colors-- are low and stark; under big skies and attenuated in time, they seem to be all the more precious.
