Acadia National Park ~ Rain in Paradise

Acadia National Park was in fog and rain for days on end.



We set up to paint on the shore of Eagle Lake. Everyone was on vacation and the carriage paths were full of families biking in the rain. Who cares! The little kids loved riding through the big puddles getting soaked.



My rain set up on the beach of Eagle Lake.



Vicki painted from the carriage path parking lot at Eagle Lake.


I’d dash out in-between the raindrops to make sketches of Eagle Lake.


The tide was rising on Schoodic Point but the sun didn’t break through the bright fog.

I came home with 16 field sketches and Marcus looked at them and said, “Who wants a painting of fog and rain? “ Too funny!
