This was painted last Spring near Asheville, NC along the Swannanoa River. The river is a narrow, fast flowing stream. It was April and the trees in the mountains were just starting to leave. The nights were brisk and the days were warm.

JOHN, THE BLUE OF THAT WATER IS SO, SO, BEAUTIFUL! IT IS A GREAT CONTRAST TO THOSE WONDERFUL SHADES OF GREEN. THE SCENE REALLY EXPRESSES THE WONDER OF THE BEGINNING OF SPRING! I JUST LOVE IT!
