Plein Air Painting on the Coast of Maine

It's so nice to be out of the studio and painting plein air again. On Tuesday I met a friend and we set up our easels at Five Islands, Maine.

 
My efforts included this painting below.
 
 
On the way back we stopped for a quick set up at the marshes in Wiscasset, limiting ourselves to 20 minutes.
 
 
 
 
 
On Friday I met another friend at the Holbrook Island Sanctuary on Cape Rosier. Every where you looked there was another fantastic scene to paint!

This is the scene I chose to paint.


Just another day at the office! Enjoy.

Water Lilies

I find the shore extremely interesting. I am endlessly fascinated with the plants and animals that inhabit these transitional places where a body of water meets the land. In this painting I interpret my impression of water lilies at the edge of a hidden cove in Knights Pond, where loons nest in the Spring and geese rest on their migratory flights.

Summer In Maine

After the snow, after the mud, in spite of the black flies, summer in Maine is well deserved!

Waterlilies


Water Lilies 8x10 oil on canvas
I enjoyed working with rich, exquisite colors and textures this morning, glazing with loose generous brush strokes.
