"Momentum"

Lots of movement ....looking down on this small waterfall.  Love trying to capture that.   11x14 oil on linen.  

"The sound of water"

Another water painting that was the result of a trip to Banner Elk, NC -- a lovely mountain visit with friends.  I love the sound of the water as it moves over the rocks.   8x10, at Carolina Creations in New Bern, NC

"Mountain waters"






From a trip to Banner Elk, NC, with my artist friend, Georgia.  We took a rainy walk up the mountain and the rain didn't matter a bit!   Beautiful place.

Trellis

Another painting from my favorite spot in Wilmington, the Arboretum.   I was so touched by the beautiful shadows that morning.  12x16, oil

Lavender crop

This is a subject I have done before in a larger format.  Driving to the beach a few years ago, I spotted this farm and pulled off the highway to take a photograph.  I have never seen this crop planted their sense.  It was truly a beautiful sight.   16x20

"Spring's message"





The blue pitcher belonged to my daughter, Kerry, who loves to bring in flowers from her garden.  The photo reference was taken when she lived in Seattle.
The painting is 8x10, oil on canvas.

"Garden ready"

More flowers.  These were some I was getting ready to plant. Makes me happy.

The painting is oil on linen, 20x24, and is at Handscapes Gallery in Beaufort.  Hope it makes you happy, too.
