30 Paintings in 30 Days :: Day 8

Day 8
30 Paintings in 30 Days painted in oil en plein air featuring the Manitowoc River by Artist Jason Prigge 


To see these works of art in person, visit the exhibit at the Door County Peninsula School of Art Guenzel Gallery from Nov. 11, 8:00am until Dec. 31, 5:00pm.  Here's a FB linkBest of all, it's free and open to the public. 

This lovely 8x10 is delicate and gentle and features the Manitowoc River as viewed from Manitou Park.  "Manitou" means "Great Spirit" and the Great Spirit is certainly present in this inspired piece.  I apologize that the photo was snapped after dark with my mobile phone and does not fully capture the the awesomeness of color, brushwork and emotion portrayed in this piece.  Good thing you can view at the exhibit.
