Hawks Road, Parrsboro Nova Scotia



"Hawks Road" 12x12 oil on panel

The topic for this month's Girls Just Wanna Paint challenge is 'calm'.  
Here we have bright sunlight casting tree shadows over the sandy road. This first glimpse of the Bay of Fundy comes into view at the end of Hawks Road, through a short stint of woods, where we have rented a cottage for the past 20 years. 
It is Heavenly.

Expressive Brushwork Workshop

South River Marsh, Late Afternoon
12x16 oil on canvas board
SOLD
 You may have to tilt the screen to see the range of color in the sky in this late afternoon plein air painting done at the marsh on 3A in Scituate. I had such fun blocking this in loosely and applying lively, energetic brushstrokes in broken color to finish it.

I've been focusing on loose brush work and will be teaching a one day workshop featuring this topic, in my studio on Saturday, November 11, 2017 from 10 - 4.
6 students maximum

Parrsboro Plein Air

Canada Day
8x8 oil on board 

I applied for and was accepted to the first annual Parrsboro Plein Air paint out. 
Not only is this my first ever Plein Air competion, it is taking place in Parrsboro, Nova Scotia, a place I've been visiting for close to 20 years and where my husband's mother's family is from.  
It is one of the most spectacular places I've been and I know it well.
I painted this at Sargent's cottage at second beach. 
Notice the reflection of Blomidon in the windows.
