Saturday was the Stroll. Artists and musicians spread out around the cranberry bog in Harwich. People come to this conservation site and meet you. They buy raffle tickets and drop them off with various artists for a chance to win the painting that is being done. The artist donates the paintings to the Conservatory to raise funds to maintain the area.
I chose a spot in the shade and spotted a few birch trees. Birch trees are rare on Cape Cod. The white/black contrast of them makes a very graphic image and I used them for a focal point in the painting. It was another great day painting on Cape Cod.

Old Cranberry Bog
This was my final day of painting on Cape Cod. I returned to the Harwich Conservation Area where I had painted earlier in the month. The morning was crisp but sunny. The area is an overgrown cranberry bog for the most part but has this water channel running through it. There are birds chirping, crows squawking and even a fox out for a stroll. It is fall and there are plenty of yellow and red colors to add variety. It is a wonderful day for the senses.
