Storm Approaching


There is something wonderful about the marshes in Maine and the stillness of the water. I'm working with a more muted palette and this painting was challenging as most of the colors needed gray. I absolutely love gray cloudy days and the possibility of rain.

  1. Gorgeous. When were you in Maine?

    We are here until the end of next month.

  2. Hi Carol, it was last October when the weather was perfect! I'm doing several paintings from that trip. I will go back next year, same time.

  3. I love it! I keep photographing the grasses on Cousins Island for the same reason - there's something about that beautiful contrast in texture. And I love shadows.... :-) I'm so happy to see that you are painting!
