SEPTEMBER 25, 2015

As they used to say in Asia, "Long time no see !!"  I am back again and hoping to keep up with this Blog like a real blogger.  I have had a good year as an artist and look  forward posting, painting and peddling in the coming months!

It has been months since I posted a painting on my blog, so here is a new one.  This is done from an award winning photo I took in London many years ago.  Frank and were doing one of our "walkabouts" in Kensington when we came upon this charming window.  The English are so great with flowers!

It is a 16' x 20" watercolor, framed.  $275.00

Jane's Buoy House

A familiar sight to Popham residents.....this little shack is visible to all who come and go through the village.  It reminds us all of the wonderful lady, Jane, who lived here and who was known as the town cryer.  We all do miss her.
This is an 11 x 15 watercolor, when matted and framed it will measure 16 x 20.  $265.00,  unframed, $175.00.

Due Cardinales.  My first post of the year 2013.  It seems as if my lust for travel took over for the latter part of 2012.  I am back on track once again with a newly organized studio which has more room to work with pastels and watercolors simultaneously and a "get with it " attitude.

Due Cardinales reflects the seriousness that mere mortals  ponder relative to decisions for the church.  It is a 15" x 22" watercolor.  At the moment unframed.  $300.00  sold

LAUNDRY BLUES

LAUNDRY BLUES

A watercolor painted on a recent trip to Monhegan Island.  On this island about a mile off the mainland, the residents are very energy conscious and I loved seeing everyone's wash  blowing in the ocean breeze.  Matted and framed this painting is 16" x 20".  $265.00

THREE WHITE BLOOMS

There are many ways to use PeeGee Hydrangeas.  My favorite is  to paint them, but I have friends who like to dry them and make beautiful wreaths to be used anytime of the year.
This is a pastel painting, 5" x 7",  $75.00

BLUE HYDRANGEA

Sometimes we get caught up in things we love...lately, that is what happened to a client and me.  I can't tear myself away from these beautiful flowers, blue, pink, white...whatever!  This pastel painting is 5" x 7" on sanded board.  $75.00.

SUNRISE OVER THE MARSH

The marshes in Maine are constantly calling to be painted.  Different marshes, different light and different locations are often the sites of artists and their easels.  This is a pastel, 9" x12",  $185.00

HYDRANGEAS FOR SUSAN

          and used in Christmas wreaths.

          One of my favorite flowers. 
          This is a pastel, 9 x 12, $185.
           SOLD

ADIRONDACKS OVER ATKINS BAY

I look at a similar view from my studio every day..  I love to sit in one of those adirondack chairs surrounded by blueberry bushes in the fall and contemplate the history of Popham which celebrated its 400th Anniversary in 2007.  This is a 9 x 12 pastel, $125.

Daisies

I am trying to get back to Daily Painting...still not yet there.  Must be the summer like weather we are experiencing here in Maine that keeps making me paint flowers.  Daisies is a pastel, 9 x 12, $100.

Queen Anne's Lace

I don't seem to be able to stop painting the beautiful and fragile flower.  This is a pastel painting, 5" x 7", $65.00

Pemaquid Light

Another beautiful spot in Maine, Pemaquid Light is an artists favorite place to paint. High on ledge, there is a picture from every angle.  I painted this view a couple of years ago and it recently sold to benefit the fabulous Lincoln Home in Damariscotta.  SOLD

Queen Anne's Lace on Blue

Nature's dazzling Queen Anne's Lace fills me with delight each fall when it grows with the cobalt Asters.   I love it in flower arrangements and I love to paint it. I think pastel captures the nuances in the petal colors. This is an unframed, 5" x 7" pastel on board. $65.00.  SOLD

Waterfall in Spring

I have experienced spring this year in four different places: Florida, Colorado Kentucky and Maine.  March with my sister Sue; April as chief Dog walker while daughter Jenny recovered from a hip replacement; with friend Barbara at the Kentucky Derby to watch my grandaughter, Rosie, run for the Roses and finally here at home in Maine I have found time to paint this beautiful waterfall from my first spring.  This pastel painting is framed and measures 14" x 18".
