This new 10 x 10″ casein on gallery wrapped canvas, is an Acadia inspired work. This pair are actually the leaders of a four-in-hand coaching visitor at Wildwood. I loved the way the light hit them as they trotted through the pine lined carriage roads on the Rockefeller’s roads behind Little Long Pond. That part of the Acadia Carriage Roads is my favourite part.
I went in loose and abstract with this painting and just finished up with a hint of detail. I have put it up on my website.
Now I need to clean out the studio to make room for new supplies that I ordered …then back to work.

It might seem as though I am fixated with Acadia………..I am. I miss the old days when the four-in-hand drivers were coming up to Wildwood each fall to picnic and drive, all duded up with their grooms in full livery and their passengers with their fancy hats. It was a taste of a other time. A time when things were slower and full of tradition. I liked that.
This 11 x 14 casein is a scene often seen at the Wildwood barn as the grooms readied their charges..this time it is a Kladruby being groomed…what a lovely team they were stepping out on the carriage roads.
This work is being added onto my website.
Another coupe for me…I finally sent off an ‘email newsletter’ …it was a learning experience for me…full of typos I am sure……but done, nevertheless. This is another way you can hear my news and you can sign up for it on my new website. Check it out!!
Now I am headed out to the barn while the warm weather stays…going down to paint the barn doors…..yellow to match the Tamarack trees that dot our forest line.
A BIT OF COLOR , HEH!!?
