HI, I just came home from the Eastern Shore Art League Paint Out. It was at Carolyn's home near Parksley,Va. This was the home of Bobby Swain, the carver and his wife Terry,the painter. The little house on the dock was his studio. I could live there.. it's adorable,large windows, right on the water, loblolly pines. Here are a few of the ladies, from left to right, standing Susan,Barbara,Carol, Gayle,Monelle, and Purobe..We ate a lovely lunch of salads(everyone had made salads),painted on the deck,and just absorbed the peacefulness. Carolyn shared some begonias with us, I truly didn't want to leave.. I'm going to paint his studio.. I was so busy enjoying the beauty, I didn't paint much! :) ha ha.. and of course I got lost coming home.. ended up 2 towns north of Parksley before I found my path back.. oh brother.. ha ha. talk to you soon,Diana
Love that door handle! I too could live in a place like this. Glad you had a wonderful time and I look forward to seeing your paintings inspired by your visit.
ReplyDeleteDiana - I am with you - such a great place to paint. So nice to get together with other artists and just have fun - glad to hear others get lost too. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteIt looks so wonderfully tranquil, Diana. And I love the heron head carving/door handle!
