Vilas Park - Lake Wingra

This is a view I painted about 6 weeks ago at Vilas Park looking across the eastern end of Lake Wingra. It was in the 30's but the wind made it much colder and this was a larger pastel painting (15x22) than I usually paint outdoors so it was challenging. Hopefully that ice and snow are gone for good for the season and spring is really here now.  I hope to paint or sketch this same scene again soon when the spring greens pop out.
