“Beaver Lake, Early Morning”, oil on panel, 9 X 12”.
About 8:00 a.m., a crystalline lake surrounded by wildflowers and pines. It was going to be a hot day, so I tackled this early as the joggers and walkers skittered by. Available here: https://www.catherinetwomey.com/available
“The Island”, 12” X 12” oil on panel.
If a painting could capture a day, this one did. It was blustery (hang on to the easel kind of blustery), and there were thunderstorms all around as I painted. The sun flashed in and out, illuminating the bright greens of the island’s trees as well as the backdrop. It’s hard to describe the joy of such a moment, other than to say it makes you feel as alive as you’ve ever been. Two hours to get it all down, get it right, and not get hit by lightning.
