Richarnau 15”
x 9.6” $500
Nestled in lavender
fields of Aurel, Provence is the enchanting B & B Richarnau, where we awoke
each morning to a sea of purple waves of dreamlike flowers and then breakfasted under what our hosts
called “ze lime tree” on sweet tea and toasted baguette.
Yaquina Head
Light Lighthouse
11” x 14”
$500
A silent and
majestic sentinel, Yaquina Head Light Lighthouse stands
watch over offshore fishing boats and nesting seabirds at Yaquina Head,
Oregon. We love the short hike to Oregon’s only remaining wooden
lighthouse.
Venice
11” x 14”
$500
Venice charms me. I get lost in the myriad cobblestoned
alleyways and delight in discovering a bridge over the reflective waters of a
canal. I adore the colored buildings in
Murano, too, so I used them in painting this scene.
The colors of of the
high desert sky glow the bluest blue. Mount Bachelor, Three Sisters and the
Deschutes River lie below. I love Oregon’s high desert country. The mornings are cool and crisp. The smell of
juniper fills the air. When the sun comes out so we can ride bikes and golf,
and in the evening we watch the stars.
Notre Amour
15" x 9.5"
$500.
I dreamt of someday
walking along the Seine with the love of my life from the time I watched Audrey
Hepburn and Fred Astaire in Funny Face in the 1960s. The dream came true when John and I visited
the City of Lights in 1993. And, oh, the
dream far exceeded reality! Paris is indeed
for lovers. The painting is a composite
of my fantasy and the beautiful reality of our stroll on the banks of the “Paris
Canal”.
