Preparing for Winter

By this time the harvest has been stored away for use during the long winter.  This scene entitled "Preparing for Winter" depicts a family storing vegetables in their cold cellar.  Great memories.  Hope to see you at the Somerset Christmas Craft Fair this weekend just outside Berwick (Saturday and Sunday, 10 - 4)

Harvest Time

Roadside stands selling fresh fruits and vegetables are everywhere in the Annapolis Valley at this time of year.  Harvest is in full swing, and everyone is enjoying the fresh produce.  "Harvest Time" is 11" x 14".  Hope to see you at the Farmer's and Trader's Market in Annapolis Royal tomorrow.  It opens at 8 am.

U-Pick Blueberries

If you have done any traveling in the valley over the last few weeks, you would certainly have encountered many of these.  "U-Pick Blueberries" is 9" x 12".  Hope you are enjoying all the fresh fruit and vegetables Nova Scotia has to offer.  On another note, I have just updated my website - www.mnewmanfolkart.com -browse through and enjoy.

Delivering Hay

It won't be long and we will be seeing farmers gathering hay.  I love the smell of freshly cut grass.  Tomorrow is the "third" Farmer's and Trader's Market in Annapolis and I will be there this Saturday.  Drop by my booth and say hello.

Late Summer

Once again the calendar has rolled around and it is time for the first Farmer's and Trader's Market of the season.  This event heralds the beginning of summer for me.  However, I will not be at my stall until June 1.  I will be bringing along several new creations, along with prints and cards.  This painting entitled "Late Summer" is 11" x 14".  Have a great day on Saturday everyone, and see you in two weeks.

June

June is such a pretty month here in Nova Scotia.  If the weather is right, some of the farmers are harvesting their first crop of hay, and the apple blossoms are in full view.  "June" is 11" x 14".  If you would like more details or to purchase this painting click here.

Delivering Hay

Anticipating summer in the valley, I got lost in this beautiful scene depicting life on an average day in the countryside.  "Delivering Hay" is 6" x 12".
