Song Garden Sunflowers (Framed)

Song Garden Sunflowers
20x20
oil on canvas
framed with a contemporary maple frame
$575


My last painting at the Song Garden in Cornish New Hampshire was this one of sunflowers reaching up for the mountains behind the autumn hills. I love the milkweed on the green hill lit up like yellow lanterns in the sunshine. Rain stopped me when I had it blocked out, but I was able to finish it in the studio.

To Go or to Stay?


To Go or to Stay?
unframed
oil on canvas
20x20
$575

I was painting in the yard of a friend in Vermont, and really liked the flying heron weathervane that had been inserted into a rock as a sculpture. As I painted it, I noticed a birdhouse and fit it into the painting. What I really like about this piece are the trees all across the top and the "conversation" between the two objects..

Everything's beautiful on Martha's Vineyard, but this was extra lovely. This view is right from the parking lot at the Audobon site. Wow.

I loved the little town of Menemsha on Martha's Vineyard. I know I'm not alone in this. And there I was painting and there were other artists there, too. One had taught me a lesson earlier in my trip. I had wanted to paint a certain area, but it was so windy, I was sure the easel would blow away! Later I went back and an artist was painting in the exact same spot I would have chosen. But he used his vehicle to block the wind and had been there 3 hours. A lesson to remember. Where there's a will there's a way!

Leaf Peeping

Leaf Peeping
Oil on Canvas

$675

Driving along the road in Vermont in October, it's all about the leaves...the mountains...the fresh air. This scene is right out in front of the home of some ex-students of mine who had invited me to dinner while I was nearby on an autumn painting trip. I said I'd come if I could paint first! So I did. Great meal, too....

On Native Land

"On Native Land"
20x20
Unframed
Oil on Canvas
$675

At Gay Head Lighthouse in Martha's Vineyard the view is just amazing. An area with shops and snack bars has been built near the esteemed view, and bus after bus come by to see the lighthouse above the spectacular clay cliffs. But across from it is a view just as amazing near the Native American Museum, and I set up there to paint, showing the huge sky and the crashing surf far below. I had very few people come by though I was out in the open. Amazing what moving a bit beyond will get you in beauty.

The Song Garden is a magical place near the Augustus St. Gaudens National Historic site in Cornish NH. Open to all, come in and pick a bouquet, leaving a donation. Up the hill is a Tea Room in a cottage once used as an artist studio, again, help yourself and leave a donation. A lovely place and I had it almost all to myself for two days.


Currently I am doing a special project, 50 days - a new painting each day no matter how large, no going back until after 50 days, which will be new years. If you would like to see the pieces as they are created, please "like" my facebook page - Lynne Schulte/studio27art

(New Project) "50 Days #1 "Garden Gate"

50 Days #1 - "Garden Gate"
20x20
oil on canvas

Hi, everyone! I have been working on advancing in my art - but I don't know where that might lead yet. I am doing one painting a day - have to start a new one each day, and most are quite large, like this one. I am focusing on working larger and looser, without thought of sales of exhibits (that part is hard). This painting is from day one of the series. It is a wonderful garden gate on Martha's Vineyard.

I will not be offering the paintings in the series for sale until January, when I take a fresh look at everything, to be sure that it is the way I want it.. SO....I am not going to daily post the paintings here, because I want only available works seen on the first page.

I am posting the project on facebook and I will talk about the 50 days on this blog. Please like my facebook page or subscribe to my blog to get the updates in your mailbox!         facebook: Lynne Schulte/studio27art
