Along the Illinois River are many beautiful sights with the rolling Ozark hills in the background. This river with eventually joins the Tenkiller Lake, runs through Cherokee Country, just east of Tahlequah, the Cherokee capitol. It is frequented by canoers in the summer months and runs silently quiet in the fall with only an occasional visitor. Bald Eagles are seen on the updrafts over the river, hunting or preening in the trees. This painting was created from memory. Such a tranquil place.
