"Moments to take your breath away"

This painting was done from research at the new inlet, which happened courtesy of Hurricane Irene.  It is a beautiful spot, constantly changing.  8x10, oil on linen.

"Morning at the South end"

Getting ready to do a show in Wilmington, a benefit for Cape Fear Academy Nov. 15 & 16.  This painting will be included; it was a result of a recent stay at Wrightsville Beach, always one of my favorite places.  It is 14x11, oil on linen.

"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.

9x12, oil on linen

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
