Wild Waves of the Atlantic (48" x 48")
This recent artwork was painted in my studio, however the watercolor titled Rip Tides seen in Watercolor Gallery 2, was done at this location in 2014 and was the spring board for it.
During the summer of 2014 I was fortunate to travel to Prince Edward Island and paint on the beaches near Dalvay and Cavendish. The wild, rough waves of the Atlantic were such a contrast to the pastoral picturesque landscape of the island. The dangerous riptides take yearly victims including one unfortunate woman the day I was painting. The water is warmest north of the Carolinas and the beaches have beautiful richly coloured sand.
New for 2017
Seaside Roses (24" x 30")
Someone once told me that roses do not grow along the seaside, but they actually do. The cool air and warm water of the Atlantic create magical atmospheric effects.
June 2011
An element of the Eastern seaboard that has inspired me over the years is the atmospheric quality of mist and fog. In this painting of a Nova Scotia forest along the South Shore I have drawn the viewer’s attention to a beautiful yet melancholy landscape of mist which creates the atmosphere and simultaneously obscures the subject matter.
Collector Invitation
For archival purposes and future public exhibitions the artist would like to invite collectors of her work, if they are interested, to share their names, the title, medium, year of the painting they own and contact information with her in order to facilitate potential curatorial research. Due to the closing of many commercial galleries previously exhibiting her work information pertaining to the location of earlier paintings has been lost. This information would be kept confidential in the artist’s records unless there was a request for a specific art work to be included in a public exhibition at which time the collector would be contacted for permission.
