An Early Snow

Last week we were given a taste of what is to come when Nova Scotia experienced a rather bold snow storm. Schools were cancelled and everyone stayed off the roads, when possible. I rather liked the event, hurrying outside early in the morning to decorate a tree on my deck. Christmas lights always look better with snow. “An Early Snow” is 7” x 9”. I will be at the Annapolis Royal Farmer's and Trader’s Christmas Market on Saturday, December 3rd from 10 - 4 at AWEC. Hope to see you there.

A Reflection


I was walking on the nature trail in Annapolis Royal with a friend on Sunday when we happened upon three deer, grazing along the path. (a very safe place for deer this time of year) So with that scene in mind, I have painted a deer enjoying the safety of a farmyard, which I have determined is off limits to hunters. “A Reflection” is 7” x 9”.

I will be at the Annapolis Valley MacDonald Museum Annual Christmas Craft Show on Friday, November 25th from 5 – 9, and on Saturday, November 26th, from 10 – 4. If you’re in the area, drop by.

Prospect Bay Area


Recently I took a trip with a friend of mind to some beautiful, scenic harbours in and around Halifax Basin. This painting “Prospect Bay Area” is one such scene. It is 6” x 12”. If you are looking for another location to view my artwork, I have recently updated my website at: www.mnewmanfolkart.com.
