"View from the Great Ledge" 2021 watercolor C. Asheley Kapelewski

A friend of ours has a secluded home that borders the Great Ledge on the Benson/Fair Haven Vermont town line. Home to a protected population of Northern Rattlesnakes, it also has a gorgeous view north of the end of the Champlain Valley. The patchwork of farm field and forest I photographed from their private sunny ledge is what inspired me to paint this limited color work.
