Title: Richard Bong State Park - First Sunset Ever Noticed
Location: Kansasville, Wisconsin
Size: 10” x 8” (dimensions without frame), 11.5” x 9.5” (dimensions with brushed gold frame)
Description: A 12-year old tagged behind me while we meandered through the prairie grass toward the lake at Richard Bong State Park in Wisconsin. The country side was completely silent except for the occasional chirp of a bird or buzz of a bee. I could feel the warm, orange glow of the sunset to our right start to descend toward the hilltop. I stopped all movement and encouraged the young girl to hold reverence for the stunning moment. She whispered, “This is the first time I’ve ever noticed a sunset.”

THIS SPECIAL ART PIECE IS A MEMBER OF THE MILLICENT STATE COLLECTIBLE PAINTINGS and was created during the Millicent van voyage across the U.S. during which I aim to capture the horizon from each of the 50 states in the grand and beautiful United States.
The art pieces on this journey were produced on a plein air easel passed down from my mother, Gail Palpant, who used the easel for many years and during one notable summer painting in Monet’s gardens in Giverny, France. It’s a special joy to continue this valuable artistic tradition.
My hope is that this painting will bring you as much joy as it did to me during the creation process.
