A small detail of a much larger diptych, this painting started with dots of paint randomly splashed in a diagonal movement. Then areas and colors were built around those starts. This may be one for the Willow downtown... the entire painting is a vertical piece, 24x36 (two 12x36 panels side by side). The canvas frame is a deep profile with the image painted around the sides for added dimension on

When it's quiet, with no movement, no particular thought, no direction.... sometimes it all starts with dots.

SOLD Marsh at Sagamore Creek. 24x48" diptych exhibited at the Willow Shop downtown Exeter. Someone has found this for their home.... I still don't know who... but I look forward to finding out what spoke to them. The scene is from a marsh area near Portsmouth, NH on Sagamore Creek. There are so many twists and turns here in seacoast New Hampshire... you can see a view like this on one side of

I still don't know the reason, the why, the how it all works ... but people come together for the same music, the same food, the same color. Why is it that as humans we can essentially point at something and nod or raise our eyebrows... and the person that is

Flower Field. 12x12 acrylic on canvas. I'm trying a different style... one that looks more like tapestry or fabric. I started with a blue underpainting and then progressed to lighter colors. This painting was first shown at our Art on Union Street open house and is now at the Willow in downtown Exeter near the boathouse. I'm feelin' the urge to continue the style in yellow oxide, cream, and rich

For some time I have wanted to share the talents of Lois Matheson with my fellow artists... She is my business guru, the energy that keeps me in a sane direction, and an all-round fabulous source for anything "business". Lois and I are preparing a business session specifically for artists to take place in early-to-mid February. She will be the business counselor and coach... I will have a few

I have a friend who gets lost in the process... actually I have MORE than one friend that gets lost in the process... I guess that's the way it goes when you LOVE making stuff. Deb Wheeler-Bean is going to be here with these smart looking little things - handbags, clutches, and wallets. She and wool fiber artist Lesley Hansard made these just for fun. They are constructed of recycled plastic bags

The time is near... and I think we will be ready when the doors open, but there is always that last mad dash before we can settle in and enjoy the company of friends. This year we have so many wonderful things in store... and my friend and interior designer, Renee Carman, is one of them. She is bringing her design "first-aid kit" to the open house. Got a sad little place in your home? Or need a

Adding some "splash" to a sign that will be at the end of our street for our big Art on Union Street. Above that is my studio sign... I'm repainting it as well for the show... and so it will last through the coming New England winter. But for today, no more thoughts of winter, I will enjoy the glorious sun!

Actually, I am not burning the midnight oil... just can't do it. I get up too early to last that long. BUT, if there is a midnight oil for me, 6-9 pm would be it. Stuff on the table... getting ready for the Open House December 2 and 3. Next week I will concentrate on finishing larger works. Every time I make a mark in color, I am in awe... not because of the product or how I have done it, but

Boy, it was great to hear from all of you.... you sent stories of your children participating with you in this challenge, stories of experiences with scissors (some a little dangerous :-), stories of where your family always kept scissors when you were growing up. Some of you counted seven scissors in the photo.... and I became a little concerned :-). Most of you found all of them ... yes, the

When I set up for my art shows, I always take scissors... sometimes more than one pair... just so I have them when and where I need them. My "scissors" are somewhere in this photo. If you can find them, you could win a gift... or feel accomplished....or enjoy the fact that you have a good sense of humor. The question is HOW MANY SCISSORS are in the photograph? All correct answers will go into the

Straight from my art table to Portsmouth this Saturday. Full production here at the studio... thank goodness for sunny days. Look for me at booth #27. Also, mark your calendar for December 2 and 3. My goal is to have 500 Tiny Paintings to exhibit at our Holiday Open House. I have about 250 now. That will mean 250 new ones... Oh my. I...must...keep....painting.

Ok, sometimes you just HAVE TO. On one of my last visits to Virginia, my family and I piled into a smallish car. I turned the camera to the back of the car without viewing and snapped. This is not cropped, not framed, not manipulated, no preservatives and nasty food additives. I love it for so many reasons. There is symmetry, but not too much. There is movement and gesture even though they are

Ok, whimsy time. I am working on tiny paintings today. Our ART ON UNION STREET holiday open house is a little over a month away and to "prime the painting pump" I work small and get a lot of thoughts down. Sometimes something tiny really grabs me and I will paint it larger and in similar colors to the tiny ones. Right now, it's 3x3 inch "Running Bunnies"... will there be a larger version at the

Now on exhibit downtown at the Willow, the final art from the detail posted earlier. Total dimension 24x48 diptych.I love the beginning stages of the painting process... the world is big... so big that somehow putting one thought together on a canvas seems limitless. The first marks are loose and rough... really delightful and fun - I know whatever marks I make are not final but fluid. As the

I'm already inspired by the thought of fall colors... this detail is from a much larger painting in progress. There is no lack of beautiful changing landscape here in the seacoast area of New Hampshire. I can walk less than a mile east and see a marsh from a tidal riverbank. I can travel a little more and get to ocean. And just 15 miles west I can see rolling hills that lead to mountains. (I

I love my Rose of Sharon.... It grows tall enough that when I stand in the kitchen I can see it swaying through the living room window. Makes me feel like my little "intown" home is in the country. Pretty soon the fall crisp will take over and the color here in New England will burst into orange and gold and red. Love the seasons.

I just put the last bit of magenta and then a good coat of varnish on a painting that I love. It really speaks to my graphic design roots... and I am so glad the boldness in this one spoke to a couple at the Cape Elizabeth Engine One Labor Day Art Show. This was the the 44th annual art show put on by the Cape Elizabeth fire department. Amazing. Engine One finds community sponsors to help fund

Ok, just so you know, if you start making faces, taking funny pictures and laughing a little too loudly while at the National Gallery, you WILL see museum security guards. My husband and I enjoyed a less formal side of art this August while on a trip to visit family and friends... :-). These are some of our favorite pieces.

Thank you to all of you who stopped by my space... It is always lovely to see you. The South Portland Art in the Park is one of my favorite art shows to do.

The view from New Castle is wonderful. At one point as you get closer to Portsmouth, you can see the colorful houses that dot the shore. Always a charming sight. The piece pictured here above the fireplace is of that area and a little more. Thank you to G and E... I loved working on this for you.

South Portland Art in the Park is tomorrow at lovely Mill Creek Park from 9 to 5. I am at site #5. Join me and tons of other artists for a fabulous day! Watercolor, photography, acrylic, oil. And the weather is going to be PERFECT. While you are in the Portland area, you can check out the Portland Headlight, go to a charming shop or cafe, or take in the coast.... either way, it's all good. Best

I just finished and delivered a commision this August for a lovely family in New Castle. It is of a view of Portsmouth from one of the areas across the water in New Castle. The original direction given to me was a run-on of descriptive possibilities... water, coastal, beach, marsh, blues, greens, (not pink... got it, Ed!), light in feeling, somewhat abstract, but still recognizable.

I don't know... a little wierd, but I absolutely LOVE the painting of "Roulin's Baby" by Van Gogh. I rounded the corner in the National Gallery of Art last year and there it was... even more wonderful than it is on the postcard in this photo. (By the way, this postcard was sent to my husband in 1978 by a previous girlfriend at the time... evidently we share similar tastes :-) And I've hung on

SOLD Two little paintings at the Willow... Swimming in Sunlight and Barn on a Soft Day. Someone was feeling a summer moment at the Willow. These are two of the softest, lightest paintings I have done... usually my brush goes straight to the strong saturated colors and it usually takes all my strength to lighten up a little.

Ok... so this is NOT the farmers market... but it IS on the way just outside Ipswich, MA. The rte. 133 drive to the Cape Ann Farmers Market is charming and pleasant, and this is just one of the many visual inspirations that appear as I drive to set up my tiny paintings. Hmmm...

I exhibited one of my unfinished paintings, "Magenta Grasses", at our art show two weekends ago to get thoughts and comments. I was totally surprised by the responses! I told several viewers that the next step for this work would be to add more of the yellowish color over the magenta (basically, covering up 3/4 of the obvious magenta areas). What a surprise... again and again several people said

I have some ideas and I am leaning in the direction of flowers... maybe poppies, but I will try not to paint them, as my daughter Maizie would say, like "old lady flowers". She said that to me years ago and I can't forget it. It's not that there is anything wrong with old ladies... hey, that time is just down the road a bit! But she said it to

SOLD "On the Beach", 24x30, acrylic on canvas. There is always a connection to make with color... everyone has a different way of looking "into" art and deciding what it means to them and how it works for them. "H" came to the ART ON UNION STREET and explored and soaked in the day. She was drawn to this one and a few tiny pieces. When I delivered the painting, she treated me to tea and gave me a

Every year at ART ON UNION STREET I look forward to the baby chicken pictures by local photographer Deb McLarnon. I just can't pass them up! These are a few of the cards I claimed this year. Thank you, Deb, for bringing your treasures to the show again!

Even more visual delights for the art show were provided by Cymbidium Floral. Jessica Christoferson's floral arrangements were stunning and filled the room with a beautiful elegance. Thank you, Jessica, for being a part of the 6th annual ART ON UNION STREET.Some of you may have been missing the fabulous jewelry of Lily Designs this year.... do not worry!...Lisa Cochran has promised to return

What a great weekend! Thank you to all who came. Conversation, art, friends, landscaping idea seekers, the community artists, the NHSPCA, DeColores.... what a time. More details to come, but first, an announcement... the winner of the gift basket generously donated by Anna Hardy Evans Furniture from IN-HOME is Christina Dragon. Christina, I will call you soon!

There was a whole lotta lookin' going on.. and we had several "almost right" guesses. The winners of a pack of postcards are Diann S., Karen G., Debbie M., Tracy M., and Pat S.P. Congratulations! I am also giving out another pack for the most effort to Brittany S. for her determination :-).

Find the RED BALL on this site and be one of the first FIVE people to send me an email with the location. I will post the five winners on this blog on Monday night. Your search may require a little clicking around... but there is no mistaking the RED BALL. It really is a ball... not a flower, not a button, not a logo or an icon... not any other circular object :-). The winners will receive one 10

This little painting is 3x3 on a thick chunky canvas frame. It is perky and bright, and stands up on its own. It makes me feel happy. I painted two more with this color and theme. Now I feel happy two more times. How far can I take this?! I don't know :-). Stop in for Art On Union Street, May 6 and 7 and find out. You may feel happy three times, too!

Finally! Yes finally! We can see buds... and crocus... and starts to green. This is my laundry, which I line dry (or rack dry in the winter). We got rid of our dryer since we didn't use it. This kind of day reminds me of the things I know will come... lunch on my picnic table, neighbors in the street, concerts in the park, less clothing and of course, art. I have lined up more shows this season

Sometimes people ask me how I go about starting a painting. There are so many answers to this. In most cases, I first have an idea of subject matter... but sometimes it actually starts with a color that I am dying to use. The picture above shows a stage of the process when I create tiny paintings. Sometimes my larger works follow a similar path... especially if I am working on a theme for a

My two friends and fellow artists will be here again with their creativity... Where would Art on Union Street be without them! Deb has such a way with finding the details of the moment in her photography... always looking in and finding some part that might otherwise go unseen. This may be putting a little too much pressure on Deb, but I hope she brings those little chickie photo cards... I need

I am thrilled to have Anna Hardy Evans and Jessica Cristoferson show their creations here for ART ON UNION STREET. Anna is a furniture "artist"... She reinvents furniture ...parts of furniture, ...and parts with other parts of furniture. She makes her own paints. She uses found metal. Just this week I found her scouring a local thrift shop for the next adventure. She also is the owner of `

SOLD "Birds on theBeach" has landed in a wonderful new home. I always love the story of how the journey takes shape. It usually starts with the words "I am drawn to your color". When someone says that to me, I have an overwhelming feeling of closeness ...its as if they are part of my family.

We are doing a really cool thing this year for the art show on Mother's Day weekend... actually several really cool things :-). One is the Visiting Artists Show...we have 20 artists joining us here each at various stages of "growth". Some as young as 7 years old and some as young as they want to be. Each is bringing one piece of art. For some it's their first time showing work, for others it

I know. This title is a little misleading. My cats are not having kittens... but I do LOVE them. The cats I am referring to are the tiny cat paintings I am doing for the open house. I love the whimsy... and I like how I feel when I paint cats. I think about the silly things my cats do, how they chirp when they see birds, how they wedge into a small space to sleep, and how my little old kitty

I'm so excited about this newest series I am working on. This panel is one of five of the same color scheme... a deep earthy yellow oxide mixed with cadmium red on a raw umber-ish background. The colors really are all "ish"s because none of my colors actually end up being just straight from the tube... I always mix and blend before painting them on the canvas.

Some of you may remember this... The table top from my art classes... a Rose Bryant original :-). Many a child's (and adult's) hand pressed dough, painted, pounded, cut, and sculpted on this surface over the years.

In 2009 I completed a five-panel wall installation called "Floating Falling Fruit" for the Wright Start Preschool. Each panel was 24x24 inches with a total width of 10 feet. In 2010 they decided to use the designs for a fundraiser. So I prepared the printing orders and got the supplies.

One of my favorite places is Lover's Key State Park just south of Fort Myers. So pristine, so quiet. The beach in the sun and the seagrapes that grow everywhere. It is amazing what you can find once you get off the "Tamiami Trail". This painting is in its final stages for our open house.

Really?... Can this be? Yes, and it's free. Each little "chunk" is an assemblage of handpainted paper and acrylic on canvas. All are 4x4 inches and 1 and 1/4 inches deep. Each is varnished to a slight sheen, signed, and quite cute when plopped on a shelf in a little nook, on your desk or in a book case. Makes a great gift for the color enthusiast in your life.

I never run out of images to paint in Exeter. There is so much history here, beautiful old homes, rivers under bridges, a busy little downtown... the problem is deciding which one to commit to without being distracted! This painting is one of my nineteen on exhibit along with Brian Crowley's six photographs, one of which is a very large... a really huge 48x34 inch color print of ... woops, can't

Another beautiful day this past Saturday... how did we get so lucky! Over 150 artists around a lovely pond in charming Mill Creek Park just over the Casco Bay Bridge from downtown Portland Maine. This is the second year for me... and I know it will be on my permanent list of favorite art shows to do. The organizers are all volunteers. They include student work and offer scholarships to those

Summer brings so many ideas for painting... I call this one Lily Pad "Quilt". Whenever I try to paint lily pads, I lose my place... each plant is perfect and crisp, but I get lost finding the edge or light I have just painted. So I decided the collection of plants floating on the top of the water reminds me of a quilt. All the beautiful, shining, circular shapes just flow into one mass of texture

I can't believe how quickly this exhibit date came up. I put my name in the pot to do an exhibit at Blue Moon about two years ago. It seemed at the moment like it was so far in advance. In the meantime, a collaboration with a good friend and photgrapher who has a fantastic eye has evolved. Brian Crowley is sharing the exhibit with me as the featured photographer. I love his style... always on the

This may be a funny thing to post... since this is an art blog, but my friends at The Divine Cafe and Grille have been going full speed ahead with their plans now to get their "specialty" vegan burger to market. They have been producing their burgers and running the cafe for three years. I have had the honor of showing my art there for that entire time (plus, I use my exhibit there as a reason to

Summer days are great. Time for packing, and hauling and adventure. The photo at the top is of a few of my recent tiny paintings... not finished, but close. They are 3x3 inches and smaller, and are enjoying a summer day in the shade. To the left is the back of my car in June just before taking off to the the Farmers Market.

This time of year fills me with options for future ideas for painting. Nature has such odd wonderful shapes... sometimes you just don't realize how different all things are until you really "look" at them. And then if you take the shapes and interpret them in your own color choices... wow... there is no end, absolutely NO end. I have never understood people when they say they are bored?!This

My friend and artist/landscape designer, Jeff Hyland, was commissioned by the City of Portsmouth’s Cultural Commission to develop a piece of public art. His "The Spirit of Janus" is one of six pieces of temporary art that has been installed around the City. His piece can be seen at the corner of International Drive and Exeter Road at the Pease Tradeport. Join all the artists involved with this

Inspiration comes from so many places... and these past two weeks have really just been so full of family and friends that the words for it are hard to find. Events like witnessing unions I never thought I would see, hearing from old friends who are putting together a long overdue gathering, going to a fabulously touching art opening at the Norman Rockwell Museum (for Jeanne Steig and William

Here is a sneak peek at one of my paintings ("Pond in New Hampshire" 8x10 acrylic on canvas) for the Blue Moon exhibit I am doing with photographer Brian Crowley this August and September. The first time I heard of Brian's work was years ago when he was photographing trees... from the top (way up in the top).... looking down through the branches and the leaves to the ground. The perspective is

Wow... It has been a while! We just got back from a family member's beautiful wedding in Greensboro NC. Weddings are so crazy and wonderful... happiness, excitement, new faces, and conversation. Congratulations to John and Shandra! On the art front.... my friend Ali Goodwin just had a grand opening at her new gallery in Kittery, Maine... the Drift Contemporary Art Gallery. She invited me to show

SOLD This painting is hot off the easel. It has already gone with Mandeville Canyon Designs and Morr Interiors to Sea Glass Village Resort Community in Wells, Maine. It is of Nubble Light and is a large 36 x 52 acrylic on board... more info about that installation later. The images, though, of the painting progress for this piece will be at our open house this weekend along with lots of other fun

SOLD   "Swaying Grasses" is a three-panel, 54x36, acrylic on canvas. It was recently picked up from the Willow in downtown Exeter by its new owner. I hope it brings years of pleasure to her... it was a fun one to work on. This may sound a little silly, but many of my paintings take on a special meaning for me.... I remember a process...how I mixed a color, how the composition was determined, or

Thank you, all, for trying this little contest. The titles you submitted were so inspiring... I wanted to paint a little something for each of them! (Judging from the titles, it seemed that some of you may be a little hungry) The selection was a little more difficult than I anticipated, so the next time I do the "name that painting" contest, I may keep my title to a three word maximum :-) This is

This may be an abstract to some... but I look at this as representational. To me this is a landscape. I sense a marsh. I see a sky. I feel distance, but a quiet calm. I am always amazed at what a brush stroke will do... just the scruff of green makes trees. And a swash of blue makes sky. My artist friends and I are almost ready for you to visit in May. We are so excited. New this year are the

This is REALLY fun. Mandeville Canyon and Morr Interiors are now in the final stages of pulling together the interior for Sea Glass Village in Wells Maine. I love what Mandeville and Morr do... so cool with design, very tied to local artists, and always seeking environmentally friendly solutions. Pictured on the left are Renee and me holding a new "what if" for the Sea Glass space. See more of

Beautiful days! So inspiring. Here are a couple of pictures of works in progress. I am doing a commission for Mandeville Canyon Designs which involves paintings for a coastal resort community... Sea Glass Village... in Wells, Maine. These are still unfinished, but this sunny day in New Hampshire makes me want to "bust out" and share them.Also, just a side note from yesterday regarding a photo my

Don’t miss this! If you want to see some fun, fresh art, look no further than the Exeter Town Hall Gallery.

Last night's demo at ECCA was so nice. I loved sharing and I loved the questions. Mostly artists attended, some aspiring artists and then some enthusiasts. It sounds like from the comments I have received, many felt a new passion to jump into the next phase of their art journeys. Thank you to ECCA for organizing the Community Artist Series and also to those that attended. It was so great to see

First, please, join me for a free demonstration at ECCA this Tuesday night. I am painting and speaking about my processes.

This grandmother was supportive and caring and
