“The human need to relate with the natural world finds many outlets. For painters, the urge to capture nature’s intrigue is most compelling. With paint and canvas, confined to two dimensions, we set forth to capture that elusive beauty lavished upon us by nature. In Leelanau, I find a dazzling abundance of compositions from which to draw painting inspiration and a public of art conscious people drawn here by a mutual appreciation of the beauty of this land.” Gene Rantz, 2005

Christmas Cove
Looking north from Christmas Cove we see the distant land points starting with Whalesback near Leland and finally North Manitou Island on the distant horizon. The overhead sun illuminates the wonderful green blue of the lake and the warmth of the sandy beach and dunes. The clouds that day were spectacular with a fair breeze blowing.
