Getting ready for Summer Sales at Sebasco Harbor Resorts!

One of our family's favorite spots ( I know so many in Maine to choose from) is Sebasco Harbor Resorts. Last year they opened this great little gift shop, and I was honored to have my work in there as well being the featured artist at the Pilot House Restaurant.

 Last year I didn't have any painting or prints of that area, so thankfully my wonderful photographer friend Melissa M. has been snapping some great reference photo's for me! 

These 3 are all original Watercolor paintings are available in my etsy shop. I am working on prints and cards now, so hope to have them finished and reproduced in time for the shops seasonal opening!

Day 5 of 30 in 30 - "Call of the Loon"

"Call of the Loon"

Original 5x7 Watercolor

PURCHASE INFO

If you've ever been to the lakes in Maine you  made of heard the call of the loon - it's such peaceful experience.

I was able to spend some time last week with my family up to camp on Thomspon Lake in Oxford, Maine. We took a ride in the boat, went swimming, and watched the Loons...and had some Margaritas! 

ENJOY!

Thirty Paintings in 30 Days - Day 30

The Final Day

Two by Two - Sailboats

Original Oil on Canvas

4x4" - $89.95

 Well, hope you all enjoyed the past 30 days and all my Maine Art....it's been really fun for me!
It's been great changing up my medium from watercolor to oils to inks....kept it challenging for me.

I keep wondering if I could do a painting a day for a year. Guess only time will tell.

I'm sure Jan-Feb would be fine since I'll be armpit deep in snow according to the Farmer's Almanac.

It's the summer months that would be tough!

Well food for thought - if anyone is willing to join me....let me know!

Until next post......happy painting!

"End Of Summer" 30 in 30 Day 13

I've been painting a number of great fall colors but as excited I am for the fall I realized that summer is coming to an end. It's sad, yet exciting at the same time.  Coastal Maine's summer has been either very hot and muggy or rainy this year, but really can't complain, since there were of course a number of Perfect with a capital P - days in between, especially here on the coast.

I kept thinking maybe it needs a boat in that ocean somewhere?

This painting started with darker shades of wet on wet but after a number of water downs....it developed.

 Really like the way the sky and reflections turned out, but maybe the trees are a bit to dark for the light and airy sky. It's trial and error isn't it. 

May try a similar style tomorrow, but with purples...you know how I LOVE purples!

Sorry,  didn't get pictures of the process because I was having to much fun playing with the squirt bottle, oh yeah I had water everywhere.

Really excited today...I'm meeting up with an artist friend of mine (first time in person) but we've been chatting like no tomorrow online! Going to do some plein air painting together.

Have a super day everyone!

"Sand Dollars" Daily Painting #34 2013 -SOLD

"SAND DOLLARS"

SOLD

Here we are in the middle of February and I'm currently on Daily Painting # 34 for the year!

Must be all the snow lately but I've been thinking of the warm days of summer, and I'm ready for it. Really, just another reason to love Maine, the four seasons! When you are ready for a change....all you have to do is wait a couple months and it's all brand new.

Hard to say what my favorite season really is. In the spring it's the fresh smell of the earth and the excitement of new flowers and trees budding.

In the summer, it's the warm breeze off the coast, the sandy beaches, collecting sand dollars and sun kissed faces.

Fall, well how can you not love the gorgeous colors of the autumn leaves and the morning chill, pumpkins, and apple picking!

But here we are in the winter...snuggled up in our homes hibernating with home made soups and the warm fireplace watching the snow covering the earth like sparkling diamonds. 

I guess I just can't pick one. What's your favorite?

Happy Painting,
~Kellie
