Plein Air Springhouse ...

“Art is the stored honey of the human soul.”

            ~ Theodore Dreiser

                 ~1871-1945

Plein Air painter captures the rustic beauty of the Springhouse on canvas on an autumn afternoon at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania in this candid capture I shot in early October.

The log cabin was part of Springhouse, the summer home of General Harry C. Trexler (1854-1933), an American industrialist who built a business empire in Allentown. The park is his namesake.
