I love the splash of color against deep bluegray sea along the eastern shore of Gaspe. These charming homesteads are lucky enough to be sheltered somewhat by the rock.

1116 Peonies in a Jewel Jar, 8x10, oil on board

Sold-Minnesota USA

These lovely peonies have been in this jar for a week! I started this painting last Sunday and finished it today. I felt like giving up every time I looked at them but felt guilty. They seemed like they wouldn't give up so how could I?
 Well it's a sweet painting. Even if I say so myself.

1115 Wild Roses, 8x10, oil on board

sold-Westmount, QC

Here's my painting beside my setup. I painted it yesterday when the petals were still on. I love the wall paper behind the roses but I felt it would get too busy.
