Back in the dark ages....

Back in the dark ages, my first gallery, in Osceola WI, was one block and a huge staircase from this beautiful falls. Several times I climbed over the roped steps in heavy winter gear with my French easel strapped to my back to learn about its magic. I painted it in all seasons, but waterfalls in winter are a particular joy!
