In the autumn of 2022 I woke up one morning and realized that day may be my last chance to capture some of the fall color this year along the Winooski River in Vermont. So I set out looking for locations. I found several and this painting is the first from that scouting trip.
Given that it was early morning there was still plenty of haze in the air which set back the bright foliage of the hills in the background. The sun hitting the river in the foreground, the lazy bend in the river, the reflections in the water, all come together to create a classic Vermont foliage scene.
