The frame adds 3 inches on each side.

Our Mint Museum, here in Charlotte, sponsored a garden tour with plein air painters in each garden. I was selected to paint and chose two gardens, one for each day. One was sold, but I am offering 2 others, framed, painted en plein air, one from each of the gardens. Email me if you're interested.

The Blue House

This weekend I am plein air painting with Art in the Garden. Will write more on Monday with photos.

Rainbow

5x7, oil on canvas board

I think rainbows should be understated in order not to look "cheesy", so this one is soft and sort of disappears into the sky. When I was teaching, a parent organization asked me to design a bumper sticker with a rainbow. I did a rainbow with a nice floppy bow at the top. It was a fun project. Connie

Daylilies and Gazing Ball

8x8, oil on canvas panel

I've painted this garden before, but this time I simplified the shapes somewhat. I like this one better--more painterly.

In the Country

6x8, oil on canvas panel

This is painted in one of my favorite rural areas, Union County, which is southeast of Charlotte. It will probably not be rural long, as it is now the fastest growing county in NC. Many farms have been sold to developers for subdivisions.
