Stonehurst, N. S.

The fishing village in this painting is located in a very tranquil setting just outside of Lunenburg, along a winding, dirt road. It is difficult to get close enough for a photo but with perseverance, it can be done, and voila – here is the painting. Stonehurst, N. S. is 9’ x 12’.

Costa Rica

Spending April and May of 2009 in Costa Rica was undoubtedly one of the best things my husband and I have ever done for us. Adopting a healthier lifestyle was easy, and for the most part we have been able to make it work here in Canada. This painting depicts what we loved about the area, so much diversity and culture. It is our wish to return there again soon. Enjoy!

Frank and Ed Delivering Potatoes

I was looking through some old postcards and came across one of Frank Mosher and Ed Bent delivering potatoes. It just seemed like the right time to paint it. I suspect the potato were still fresh when the customer got them! “Frank and Ed Delivering Potatoes” is 5” x 10”.

A Sun Shiny Day

As the rain comes down and the green grass appears from beneath the snow, sketches for summer build in our mind. The valley comes to life as the red apples pop into view and tractors are busy in the fields preparing the hay. But no day is complete without clothes blowing on the line. A Sun Shiny Day is 9”x 12”.

A Busy Summer Day

Although we are still in the heart of winter, it is time to think ahead to warmer weather. Whenever I need to slow down and think peaceful, warm thoughts, I remember the valley as it was in summers gone by. I hope this painting takes you to that special place where you can relax and feel warm. “A Busy Summer Day” is 11” x 14”.

A Wharf at Port George, N. S.

This is another painting of Port George in the early 1800’s taken from a postcard I purchased last summer at the Candle in the Window Gift Shop. This is just one of the many wharfs that lined the coast of this shipping community during that period. If you are visiting this part of the province, take the opportunity to visit the gift shop and be regaled with stories from the past. You will be amazed at the history of this beautiful area. The painting is called “A Wharf at Port George, N. S. and is 6” x 12”.

Midnight

During the winter months I get together with friends to paint. Today I felt like trying something new and voila! Using only black, white and shades of grey I created this painting that I call “Midnight”. It is 5” x 7”. I hope you like it.
