Spring Fever

The temperatures are rising. The past week has had temperatures in the 50's and 60's. I was out painting all weekend in Baraboo, and everyone was out walking their dogs, riding bicycles, and playing at the parks. I think everyone has a touch of spring fever.

I've had some good times painting spring in Baraboo over the past few years. In honor of the warm weather, I wanted to post some of them here. By the end of the week we will be back to the 30's. After we shake winter, there will be a couple months of mud season, but there is hope, May is coming!

Thanks for spring memories!! I was out painting at Indian Lake the last 2 days. Now it's back to winter for a while, I guess. Your spring visions are beautiful!

Thanks Pat! Good for you getting out to Indian Lake, I was in Baraboo for most of the nice weather. Will you be in the show in Cross Plains?

I miss springtime in Wisconsin! It's hot and hotter pretty much all year down here in Texas, but I'll take the heat over a Wisconsin winter any day.
Kyle, this collection is beautiful. Pastels are fun colors to work with and your depiction of each moment is flawless on the canvas. Thank you for sharing
