"Tropics of the Pool" by C. Twomey
Acrylic, 12 X 16” on archival oil paper.
I spent a day painting this gorgeous pool on Anna Marie Island, Florida. It was too windy for the beach, so somehow I became engrossed with the water and shapes of the pool. It was mysteriously surrounded by plantings many of which were in the shade. It was quiet and mesmerizing to watch the waves and colors change.

Happy New Years, A Summary
"Visceral" by Catherine Twomey
Operating on intuition, I move through the world looking at facts as well as trusting my instincts. When something's visceral, you can feel it in your guts. A visceral feeling is intuitive — there might not be a rational explanation, but you feel that you know what's best, like your visceral reaction against flying a particular airline or having faith that your best friend isn't who you thought. Lately, there's been a deep-seated, visceral sense that something big, something unknown, is about to happen. I read a lot about climate change and worry that something big is happening and there's nothing to avoid it; nothing to be done. This painting comes from that sense. The cool blue shapes are amorphous - is it ice, melting? Is the orange contrasting heat growing, spreading, encroaching? The organic, churning forces of nature will deal with us one way or another, no matter how we treat them - they'll win. This painting is on archival canvas and board; it is 8 X 16".
"Invasion" by C. Twomey
"Invasion" of what, I can't say. A sense of foreboding; impeachment anxiety; the reckless spirit of the season. Consider the source. Acrylic, 8 X 16" on RayMar linen.
Prints of my work are now on sale here:

Happy holidays and may next year be honest.
"Full Moon, December" by Catherine Twomey
Winter is advancing. The sun sets earlier by minutes, every day. Something extraordinary happens to the sky, however. It seems clearer, crisper, more beautiful then any other time of year. It's energizing. I want to let the paint have a mind of it's own, with a little help from me. I want to capture the contrasts and clarity. Tomorrow, December 12, the full moon of December, called the Full Cold Moon, will arrive overnight tonight just after midnight eastern time, and as it rises it will be joined in the sky by the planets Venus and Saturn, which will be close together after reaching a conjunction on Dec. 11. This painting is unframed. It is on archival RayMar linen panel and is of the highest quality. Acrylics were used, along with inks and flow medium. It is a luminous, 8 X 10" original painting.
"Missing The Garden" by C. Twomey
It’s kind of a melancholy day with the coolness and the rain. To cheer myself up, I’m working on this abstract showing memories of the summer garden. I have some azaleas that are this deep, gorgeous pink that just popped out of my head. Think I’ll keep going with this one as the days improve.
