When I was showing at the Landings Art Association show a few weeks ago I met a lovely couple who liked one of my palm paintings of the Tybee Trail Path.  He knew it well.  He and his wife also liked to take photos and he showed me this photo on his phone he had taken.  I loved the perspective and asked if I could use it for a painting.  He agreed and sent the image to my phone.  I usually work from my own photographs but I love the way this one turned out.  The image above shows the photo and the painting.  It is my last painting to finish for the Telfair Show this weekend. 

The owner of the photo will have first dibs but if you are interested contact me.  It is a 9x12 and sells for $275.  It will be the one with the wet paint sign in the show.

A day on wassaw.  This summer was great.  The weather was not as hot as usual.  This photo was taken on Wassaw Island which is one of the barrier islands off Savannah.  We visit it often as it is a private beach only accessible by boat.

I have been working on paintings for several shows which have kept  me very busy.  I have been taking time out to paint these very quick paintings of palms.  These photos were taken on the Tybee Trolly Trail.  It is the old rail path of the train which traveled from Savannah downtown to Tybee Island.  It is lined on both sides with marsh and the back river.   A joy to paint.

I went to Jacksonville to visit my BFF (bestfineartfriend) Kaytee Esser.  We went to the Riverside Art Market where I photographed these radishes.  We painted them that night after Greg her husband fixed us a fabulous steak dinner.  We always have fun together.  You can view the process of the painting in the slide show below.

WILL YOU?

Well, how could you refuse?

My beginning class painted this subject.  They were a very talented class.  This was my demo.  Everyone got to paint their own words on the note.

PATRIOTIC GARDEN - HAPPY 4TH OF JULY

We just returned from Annapolis and I had to paint this for the 4th.  The homes and gardens were all decorated with flags. It was such a patriotic town.  Perhaps it was for the 4th of July but I got the feeling that the flags are always there.  

I will post more about the fabulous trip later.
