Can you feel it? The quiet of the morning beginning to awaken my senses. It’s going to be a wonderful day!

Between the Lakes
I really enjoy kayaking and there is a favorite spot that is between 2 lakes close to my home, Crescent and Panther. Many trees fall into this waterway and make excellent places for small animals and much plant life. Of course, when I find a place I like, I have to put it on canvas. This one turned out quite well. I hope you like it.

Wild Cat River
Summer is here and I’ve been busy with gardening, kayaking and having fun. Thought you’d like to see my latest endeavor. This spring I went to New Hampshire to a town called Jackson where this river rages after the snows melt. It was a beautiful sight and of course I had to put it to paint. I hope you like it. Let me know!

20X24 WILLIAMSBURG OILS ON STRETCHED CANVAS. LOTS OF FINE DETAIL AND COOL TONES WITH A HINT OF WARMTH SET THE SCENE FOR THIS WINTER LANDSCAPE. I WAS LOOKING AT THE WORK OF A WONDERFUL LANDSCAPE PHOTOGRAPHER ON ETSY WHEN ONE PHOTO CAUGHT MY INTEREST. IT WAS OF THE HEMLOCK CREEK BRIDGE. I ASKED PATTY IF SHE WOULD ALLOW ME TO USE HER PHOTO TO WORK FROM. SHE AGREED AND I WENT TO WORK. THE PHOTO IS A STARTING POINT AND INSPIRATION. I ALMOST NEVER PAINT EXACTLY THE SCENE I SEE BUT MAKE IT MY OWN.
PLEASE GO TO PATTY’S ETSY STORE AT: http://www.etsy.com/shop/CountryDreaming TO COMPARE PATTY’S PHOTO AND MY PAINTING AND CHECK OUT THE REST OF HER WORK. I THINK YOU WILL FIND BOTH OUR WORKS ARE WORTH YOUR WHILE!
YOU CAN PURCHASE HER PHOTO AND MY PRINT AND HAVE A GREAT
COMBINATION ART TO ADMIRE.
ALL MY ART IS AVAILABLE IN PRINT FORM.

Sugar Maples
The maples are running with sap now, and have been for the past couple of weeks. This is a sure sign of spring. Buds are swelling, flowers are emerging from the ground and we all feel a sense of rebirth. What a wonderful time of the year!
