This is a little study I did at a local park on Lake Maitland.  I love this little park with it's cypress trees and nesting birds.  It was pleasant painting here with the breeze off the lake in the middle of summer.    You'd never know that this was created right in the city.  I love the distant views and I'm a sucker for cypress knees. The cypress trees here have such a wonderful energy and peace.
