Pre-Workshop Painting of ‘Susan’s Marsh’ Got Some Touchups Pre-Exhibit

Leave a reply

Before the recent workshop on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, I tried to get in the groove by painting one of the places we would visit there.  I call it ‘Susan’s Marsh’ because it was based on a photo my sister took in showing us potential venues.  I didn’t finish it then, but did so a couple of weeks ago so I could include it in our new Maplewood Exhibit.  I decided to spice it up a bit by adding a heron — it was looking a bit too tranquil without it!

 

I’m sending a painting to the Ohr-O’Keefe Museum of Art auction! Help us fundraise!

Marsh and Blue Skies. Oil on Linen. 20×16. 2018.

Am just back from UPS, having sent one of my ‘babies’ down to the Ohr-O’Keefe Museum of Art in Biloxi MS. It’s a contribution to an upcoming auction to benefit the museum. I hope someone saves me from the embarrassment of it going unsold!!!! (I’m sure they’ll let you bid long-distance if you call! Help me help me help me!). That was tongue-in-cheek!  [NOT!]

For those of you in the area, the auction is going to be at a fabulous event — enjoy a beautiful home, wonderful food, and play murder-mystery as entertainment.  If I were down there, I’d definitely be there!  Contact the museum for tickets if you’d like to attend.

Eastern Shore Blues. Oil on Linen. 2017. 16 x 20

My husband and I love to go driving on the Eastern Shore of the Chesapeake Bay.  There are always luscious views of marshes, fields, the bay, and the many streams that flow into it.  Fertile ground for painting.  This new painting will be shown for the first time at our upcoming exhibit at Gallery B in Bethesda.
