Sweet White Clover (Northdays)

Canoe in Sweet White Clover


The last building on the top right is the Mississippi Canoe Club, next to Spar Aerospace. I loved the meadow next to where I used to live-it was full of scented sweet white clover, chicory, roseate clover flowers, and butterflies attracted to the milkweed, which I have also sketched.The area is all kept mowed now, host to weekend hot air balloonists, a wonderful sight.

Painting is acrylic on board, 30"x14".artist, Susan Mary Risk
