Across the Marsh

This 6x8 marsh oil is really one of my favorite marsh paintings.  It is painted from a photo I took looking across the marsh in Ipswich, MA.  A beautiful place with a beautiful coastal area. 
I think of the phrase "through a lens lightly" when I look at this.  It seems to be all suggestion with hints of homes, sand, water and the beautiful green of the hills.

Blue Teapot

Well I did it again.  I thought I was over my teapot mania but I guess not.  What is it about that round, plump little shape that so intrigues me?  I know that teapots come in all shapes and sizes but the cubby little round ones are my favorite. 
I painted this little 5x7 for a group challenge where we could use only red, blue yellow and white.  I used a beautiful mixture of all those colors to make the background, that was the challenge.
