Wetland Morning

Painting inspired by Driftless Area, Recent Work

Wetland, oil painting by Iowa artist Fred Easker.

Working on this painting felt like driving through fog—seeing just enough ahead to keep moving forward. I wasn’t after detail so much as discovery, pulling the trees, water, and distance slowly out of the haze. This Driftless wetland held that still moment when form and atmosphere seem to trade places.

All paintings are inspired by actual places in the landscape.
