Not For Sale At This Time
I had a good weekend painting away! My guys were doing home repair stuff that makes me a nervous wreck (definitely not a micro-manager, definitely not...) so I settled in to the studio. With my music turned way up and no one to disturb by singing along at the top of my lungs, I was feeling 'beachy'... And I found this photo I took last Summer on Cape Cod. As I was painting, the scene just felt comfortable... familiar, and I couldn't figure out why. As I was putting the last few brush strokes on, I realized, that my good friend Joan Brancale had painted this exact cottage from this exact angle (we both must have stood at the edge of their driveway), and her painting hangs in the dining room of her Summer home, where I have frequently visited. Oh, well, great minds think alike, I suppose!

I love this! The path leading the eye right to that sweet cottage... awesome!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful spot, Kelley. You have handled that light so gorgeously. I'd love to have a cozy little cottage just like this to call my own.
