Autumn Glory

SOLD


There's nothing quite like New England in Autumn, with it's blazing colors and blue, blue skies.  This lakeside painting could be many places in the northeast--hope it reminds you of a beautiful lake near you!

This piece is approx. 10" high by 14" wide and painted on Arches 300# watercolor paper with Winsor & Newton watercolors.

Laden Bough

SOLD

This watercolor painting is done in a vignette style with all edges of the paper being touched, but in varying amounts.  It is a very loose and free painting, with lots of sketched in leaves left unpainted.  Even the peaches have a soft, fuzzy look, with little detail. It was done very quickly and I liked the immediacy of it.  It's approx. 15.5" high and 9.5" wide.  Hope you enjoy this one!

Garden Niche II - Oil

SOLD

Garden Niche II  is an oil painting from a beautiful spot in Sarlat, France, in the Dordogne Valley.  It was a lovely sunny morning and breakfast was being served on the terrace of our bed and breakfast.  I loved the shadows on the clay pot and the texture of the stone of this very old structure.  The flowers were a bright spot of color set against the neutral stones.  This is painted on a 10" x 10" canvas.

Hope it reminds you of a sunny summer morning!

Beauty in White

This painting is very different for me, but I have to say I really enjoyed the challenge.  I was taking a wonderful watercolor class and this was the subject.  I loved the grace of the swan and the reflections in the water were really interesting to paint.  Hope you enjoy this piece--it's painted on 300# Arches watercolor paper with transparent watercolors.   I'ts roughly 1/4 sheet, about 14" wide by 10" high.

Waterlily

This was a new subject for me, but I really liked the waterlily nestled on that broad dark leaf and the inky blue/black of the water.  Lots of contrast!  This painting is 11 3/4" wide by 9 3/4" high,  matted with an acid-free 3" double mat and mounted onto acid-free foamcore. 

Hope you enjoy viewing it.

Sunflower II

Sunflower II

I know, another sunflower!  Well, the season for them is short so I like to paint them while they're in bloom.
This sunflower was actually up in Westerly, Rhode Island, at Watch Hill.  I really liked the shadow being cast on the center of the flower and it was a little more dramatic than some with the sun full on.
Hope you enjoy it!
