Day 100 Off the Highway – Landscapes from Nebraska and Labrador: “Across the Pond” and “Inukshuk at Sunset”

Day 100  Patricia Scarborough – Nebraska: Across the Pond – Oil  on board 7″ x 5″ - August 2009  

–  This is one of my favorite “hidden” places.  It’s just off the bridge coming into town off Highway 81.  Actually, it’s a backwater from the creek, full of algae and muck.  When the sun hits it though. the water sparkles and gleams as though it were a clear mountain stream.  –

Day 100 – Mavis Penney - Labrador:  Inukshuk at Sunset  - Oil on canvas  5″ x 7″ - August 2009

– An Inukshuk is an arrangement of stones traditionally placed to mark a good location, or to indicate a good direction along a trail.

People might also build an Inukshuk to demonstrate “I was here” in a particular place.  For me, this particular Inukshuk celebrates me

reaching my goal – 100 Days of a-painting-a-day. This Inukshuk also points me farther in my creative journey. I am grateful for all of your

comments and suggestions during the past several months. Thank you for joining us “Off the Highway” and sharing our experiences.  –
