Lake Superior Coastline

Title: " Somewhere on the Coastline" 8x10'' acrylic on canvas

There are many places on the Lake Superior coastline that celebrate it's beauty. This is a scene I painted from memory this past winter...somewhere on the coastline.

Superior Wind (from Songs from the Coastline/Safe Harbour)

There’s a wind blowing on shore tonight
Waves will be rolling high by the morn
Superior wind blowing in
Mishepezhieu I can see your form
I guess I’ll be staying here for awhile

I’ve been here nine days and you're still blowing strong
It’s cold on this island
But it’s warm in my heart
There’s a magic on this water
There’s a spirit on this air
Superior wind blowing in
Mishepezhieu I can see your form
I guess I’ll be staying for awhile
I don’t mind staying for awhile

With my eyes closed I can still see your stars
Silver birch you're glowing in my mind
There’s a power in this stone
There’s a power in these trees
Superior wind blowing in my soul
Mishepezhieu I can see your form
I guess I’ll be staying for awhile
Don’t mind staying for awhile
I guess I’ll be staying for my life.
