Twilight on Old Harbor • 6×6 • oil on wood • $125 • purchase link
I had a lovely sunset walk with the pups the other night that ended with this little sliver of a moon hanging over Old Harbor. SO pretty. I love the colors in the sky & water & the beautiful silhouetted islands and boat. Such a peaceful sight.
I took the pups for a trail walk on an overcast afternoon and we were rewarded with some sun and a moody sky when we made it to the shore. I sat on the rocks and did a little sketching while the dogs explored the gorgeous low tide shoreline below. Such a beautiful outing.
I’ve been walking the trails on Lane’s Island a lot and I just can’t get enough of this view. I love the marsh grass and the way the opposing shorelines reach out across Indian Creek. Such a special place and always my first stop when I arrive on Vinalhaven.
I sat on a bench with the ebbing tide flowing below and took in the gorgeous scenery of Vinal Cove and painted. The rush of the water flowing through a narrow passage was so relaxing and I had a bald eagle fly overhead. So beautiful!

I could wander the little trails on Lane’s Island all day. I love how the grassy paths meander through the hills, the brush and the pine trees while offering glimpses of the water and the coastline. It’s such a special place to walk, dream and just be. I’m grateful.
Morning Light on Casco Bay • 6×6 • oil on wood • SOLD
I’ve been slacking in the morning lately and missing the actual sunrise from the Eastern Prom. But I am so enjoying the warmth of the early morning light after the sun has come up. I love the way the light dances on the still water and seeing a few boats still out in the bay. Such a gorgeous spot to call home.

We had a lovely picnic dinner at Kettle Cove with friends and got to enjoy the magic of the moon coming up. It’s such a treat to witness these moments in such beautiful settings.
Summer Evening • 6×6 • oil on wood • $125 • purchase link
We’ve enjoyed a bunch of gorgeous summer evenings on the Eastern Prom recently and it really fills me up. Just look at this view and the sunset glow! I love watching the clouds change shape and color as the sun goes down, and seeing all of the boats sparkling in the evening light is so inviting. I’m so grateful to have this park and these views in my backyard. WOW!
I’ve been on the go for the past few months and haven’t had much time for painting my daily paintings, but I did manage to squeeze this one in. It’s a Lake Champlain view from the Point. Nothing like a still summer night on the lake with the moon looking down on you. I just love the light at this time of day and the quiet. So peaceful.
Having grown up in the Midwest & Northeast where the landscape is lush and rolling, I find the South Carolina Lowcountry other worldly. I am ALWAYS amazed at this landscape–it has such a primitive and raw feel to it. And the more time I spend here, the more I love it. It really does remind me of the jungle. And speaking of the jungle, the movies the Jungle Book and Forest Gump were filmed out here on the Sea Islands … and the Prince of Tides too. So cool! This little scene is from a nearby pond that is often full of egrets, herons … and gators too. I so enjoy observing it … from a distance. 🙂
