Red Climatis Vine

Easton, MD

 

This week I visited the prestigious Plein Air Easton! festival in Easton, MD.  Walking around, I saw this beautiful Climatis stretching its vines outside the fence of one home in the Historical District. 

I'm glad the flowers were enjoying the heat, I felt like I was melting and I'm glad to be back now in my cool basement studio to paint.

Into the Fjords

A fjord is a long, narrow inlet with steep sides or cliffs, created in a valley carved by glaciers.

I have a cousin who lives in Norway and he is the inspiration for this painting.  Some day perhaps I'll take him up on his invitation to visit and see the fjords for myself.

Sunrise At Spa Creek

My first attempt at Plein Air painting.  It was a lovely morning but the sun gets up way too early for a Saturday.  I setup on the sidewalk area of the drawbridge over Spa Creek in Annapolis.  There were a few runners and bikers while I was there.  Only the rumbling of buses over the bridge was a bit disconcerting.  I held my place for as long as my bladder could stand.

Bottles One -- SOLD

Two of the bottles in my lovely collection.  I love the way the light dances within them.

Misty Point (Not For Sale)

Protected by the rocks, this little piece of land supports just a few scrubby trees.  One tree juts out, reaching for the sky and peering over the edge, at once.
