Returning to the Stehekin trip, I painted this on the deck of the house we rented.

Aaahhh, what a great trip.

Running around working on last minute details for the Fresh Paint Festival tomorrow. Don and I did most of the set up this evening. Thank goodness for tall, helpful husbands with long arms!

 

If you can come to this great waterfront, art festival be sure to stop by and say hi!

A small group of us painted here along the side of the road in Stehekin. Direction wise, the best I can tell is we are looking south from the very northern tip of Lake Chelan. It was a really lovely location. I had fun waving at the locals driving by ever so often.

I took a dynamite trip with PAWA this spring to Stehekin. This is a tiny town on the east side of the mountains at the northern tip of Lake Chelan. What makes it unique is you can only get there one of three ways - ferry, float plane or hiking through the mountains. How cool is that?

I shot a lot of video while I was there and compiled it into the sixteen minute video below.  The first part of the video (lots of lupine) is shot on the way to Stehekin.
