MORNING IN HYDE PARK, 6x12, Oil on Stretched Canvas SOLD

SOLD

Oh, to be in England
Now that April's there,
And whoever wakes in England
Sees, some morning, unaware,
That the lowest boughs and the brushwood sheaf
Round the elm-tree bole are in tiny leaf,
While the chaffinch sings on the orchard bough
In England - now!!

Robert Browning

Painted from a photo reference taken on a recent trip to Hyde Park.

SWIM AT YOUR OWN RISK, 6X8, OIL, SOLD

Remember those lazy, hazy days of summer...not now, but back in the day?

Back when the greatest feeling in the world was grab one of these babies, run down the dock and take a flying leap into the lake or pond.

Back when your biggest worry was  who would you go to the sock hop with!  For those of you who don't have those memories.....that means "a dance"!

THE BROWN DUCK, 6X8, OIL,SOLD

Sometime back I did a couple of duck paintings and promised to do another. One thing led to another and the project got put on the back burner. The mood finally struck and I painted this one. The ducks are in the mountains of North Carolina and the thing that attracted me to them was the beautiful water color. The lake is surrounded by thousands of trees and the water at the marina, where I took this photo, is a brilliant emerald green. So brilliant, it looks artificial. On this work, the sky is reflecting in the water and the green shows only in the shadow.

CHEAT LAKE, 5X7, OIL,SOLD

My husband and I had the good fortune to visit W VA during peak leaf season this year. It was stunning to say the least! This is a lake outside Morgantown W VA, close to the PA border and home of Univ of WVA
