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".
