Snowshoeing along the Good Harbor Bay Trail located in the Sleeping Bear Natural Lakeshore, is inspiring. Home to a wide variety of tree species, each with its unique characteristics, was the catalyst for a series of “bark” paintings. It was fun to play with the color and textures of the birch using watercolor on Claybord then coated with encaustic medium.
