"QUEEN ANNE'S LACE"

MONHEGAN ISLAND, MAINE
It's said that Anne, Queen of Great Britain and her  great grandmother Anne of Denmark,are taken to be the Queen Anne for which the plant is named.  It is so called because the flower resembles lace: the red flower in the center is thought to represent a blood droplet where Queen Anne pricked herself with a needle while making lace.  While visiting the island I walked along a path and came across this beautiful field of Queen Anne's Lace with the visual of ocean and fence, sailboats and a New England home, what a perfect painting it would make.  This is an original painting, watercolor 22x15- hope you enjoy and take time to rest and be in the moment~

A natty black-white seabird with a huge multicolored bill hangs out off the coast of Maine in the summer on EggRock not far from Monhegan Island.  He is called the Clown of the Sea.

"PEEK -A- BOO" Sunflowers on Monheghan Island Maine, USA

Monhegan Island is located 10 miles off the coast of Maine.  This Island has brought many artists to a picturesque scene of rocky coast and one of the highest cliffs on the waters of Maine.  The painting is showing one of the oldest houses on the Island (The Sterling House).   One of our greatest artist, Jamie Wyeth also owns a home on the island.  Being from Maine it has been such an experience  to visit and paint on the island.  The Sunflowers shouted paint me!  Enjoy

Day # 2 " Morning Swim" Watercolor

One week of pure enjoyment at the cottage/camp, baby ducklings and Mother going for a quiet morning swim.  The window view of the camp, a paint brush in hand and a good cup of coffee is really all I near to make this lovely scene come alive ~ From the mountains of Maine ~

" TWO PINES" Watercolor

This lovely Maine Scene is all about the solitude of islands and coves along the shores of Maine.  Pines trees hold on with their roots clinging to the rugged aged environment .  I see this visual many times while out kayaking enjoying the stillness and sounds of eagles, ospreys and other natural creatures.  Hope this will take you there even for a moment.  This painting is one of many for the 30 paintings in 30 days, along with hundreds of artists all over the world.  Enjoy ~
