“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

Golden Hour on Crooked Lake
This is my favorite fishing spot (in the upper peninsula). My fly rod has taken many plump bluegills and bass from along these pine surrounded shores and numerous campfire fish fries fill my memories. The painting is set at the enchanting “golden hour” when the last rays of the summer sun flood the earth with her golden promise.
