local sites

This little 8x10 landscape is the Bridge of Flowers in Shelburne Falls.  If you are local to western Massachusetts it is a beautiful place to spend a day.  Down below the falls there are the 'devil's pock marks' which are holes the water wore in the rocks.

fabulous floating frames

My husband came up with a great way to frame paintings that are painted over the edges.  These floating frames not only show off the painted sides of these paintings but I think they give these very different landscapes a conteporary look.  He keeps coming up with ways to make my art look wonderful!

Another local landscape

This is Paradise Pond at Smith College.  I have never been there and noticed it on the internet while browsing.  It was just after painting the Old Mill waterfall so I suppose that might have been why I was inspired to paint it.  The painting is a 16x20 acrylic on stretched canvas.
