"Beaver Pond Paradise"
14"x18"  Oil on Canvas
In northern Minnesota's Chippewa National Forest is a site 
known as The Lost Forty. This is a parcel of land with 200-
300 year old white and red pine trees that was saved from the
loggers ax because of a survey mistake back in the late 1880's. 
Following a hiking trail through the forest we came upon a beaver
dam in this beautifully serene bog.

tranquility inspires.
