She captured the cool autumn day, punctuated with gold, ocher and warm yellows against the purple shadows along the pathway.

A favorite subject of mine is the wetlands found hidden in a tall grass prairie. As marsh, lake, fen, and pond stretch to a distant tree line, my paintbrush heeds the challenge. I know time here is fleeting as the sun rises to its zenith.
About the Artist
When the land changes, Suzanne Massion;s paintings will remind you of the way it once was. She drives the back roads through the tall grass prairies and farmland of her native Illinois, stopping to paint en plein air when the moment strikes. She feels like she;s in a race to save a disappearing treasure as buildings burn or open space is paved over. Suzanne donates a portion of her sales to fund local land conservation efforts.

Spring is complicated. Colors of fall persist. The yellowing and burgundy leaves of red oaks still cling to trunks and limbs throughout late winter. Suddenly, a...
