Barking Waters in Winter-Oil painting by Texas artist Shirley Quaid


Some paintings take a little more out of you than others. I took the reference photo for this January, 2012 after I had climbed up and over a railroad trestle, across rocks strewn over water only to climb another embankment to view the creek that gives Wewoka, Oklahoma its name.

Even in winter with low water you can hear the sound of the water tumbling over the rocks. The Seminoles called this area wewoka or barking waters in the English tongue. This painting, which is SOLD, will be on display in the Seminole Nation Museum in March and April of this year.

Happy Trails,

Shirley
