This marsh painting is done is in the impressionist style and is inspired by a trip we took last year to Charleston. On the way we stopped in Beaufort, South Carolina.  This lovely coastal town has some of the most beautiful marshes, beaches and waterways.  We got there  late on Sunday morning so it was pretty quite downtown.  We found a little restaurant called Blackstones.  It seemed popular with the locals so we stopped and we had a great breakfast.  We  did a little shopping down by the waterfront (a few stores were open by noon).  We enjoyed a long conversation with one of the store owners who was very friendly and gave us some tips on what to see and do.  We were only in town for the day before we headed for Charleston.  Next time, I would stay in one of their Bed and Breakfasts  We drove around a bit and were surprised at the lovely historical homes and we stopped by and visited an old historical church.  We also visited Huntington Beach State Park and the lighthouse.  The lighthouse is on my to do list to paint.

This original acrylic landscape painting is done in blues and soft greens and browns. The golden grass accents the blue marsh water nicely.  The winding marsh water draws you into to the painting and invites you to jump in and go rowing on the marsh!

Painting Edges of three New Coastal Paintings

  I put my last three oil paintings in an assembly line to paint the sides.  I often take over the dining room table to perform this task.   The painting in the middle is based on our trip up to Watercolor Beach, FL with Chula, our dog.   I think I will call it "I Only Have Eyes for You". John was focused on Chula and not the beautiful woman who rode by on the sunlit sidewalk next to a stream.  I knew when I took this photo, that I would capture that moment on a canvas one day.  I miss our little Chula.  She loved to go on trips with us.   I also painted this glistening waterlily painting based on a Florida marsh at sunset.   The carnival of colors are delightful and memorizing.  I am a big fan of Monet and can see his influence in the way I paint my waterlily paintings.  I remember visiting an art museum and admiring one of his waterlily paintings.  I asked the curator why the edges still had white  canvas showing and remarked that it looked unfinished.  She said that Monet

Sunrises and Sunsets: My Next Chapter

Sunrises and sunsets are my favorite subjects to take photographs of and paint.  They signify a brand new start and a closing of a chapter.   I have started a new chapter in my life!  My husband and I have moved back to Texas after leaving over 20 years ago.  I enjoyed living in South Carolina for a several years but spent the last 20+ years in Florida.  It is great to be back in the Rio Grande Valley by family and were we were both raised.  I was also very fortunate to be able to continue my long career in higher education in Texas where I work for a university.    As I turn the chapters in my life, I will share my love for paintings, nature and living well on this blog!  Living well to me means being a good steward of God's gifts, for the good of others to glorify and praise God.  I have enjoyed sharing my paintings over the years and am excited about painting new places in Texas.   I have yet to unpack from our move, and will leave my art supplies in boxes until we find our perm
