Painting during the blizzard

I love the cozy feeling of being snowed in. During the last blizzard I celebrated the beautiful white landscape with a little snowy painting, anticipating what things would look like the day after when the sun appeared.

This is done alla prima...my workshop on this process, Feb 12, still has a few openings. Info on my website:  http://www.lindapackard.com/workshops

Rocks. Maine.

SOLD

Maine shores are colorful regardless of the time of year. The range of greys alone is fabulous and when contrasting with the grasses, seaweeds, and deep rich pines, it's....well, it's why we are here.

Causeway Colors

Causeway Colors   SOLD

I am drawn to the colors of low tide waters, the ochres and browns and grays against the greens and blues. This one reminds me of areas along the Causeway, between Maine's Little Deer Isle and Deer Isle. The painting just happened as I was pushing paint around one morning last week. Then I took a drive past the Causeway yesterday and realized that must have been where my senses were that morning in the studio. I like the smell there too.
