Beach Reading

Striped Chair, 8 x 8 " oil on archival panel, ©2013, Fay Terry

SOLD

This painting sold at Sunset River Gallery this past week end and I am so happy that it is going to be hanging in a home in a far away state. I love it when my paintings travel.
This is one of my favorite scenes in Kennebunkport, Maine, at Mother's Beach.

Peaceful Spot

Lobster Boat At Rest, 8x8" oil on cradled panel, ©2012, Fay Terry



This is a beautiful spot on the Kennebunk River where  the variety of boats is amazing. You see everything from huge yachts to small inflatable boats and lots of working boats like this one.
I have stayed for hours and painted near this location while watching the continual parade of boats coming and going.  What fun!
I certainly had a great time painting this one and I hope you like it. I will probably paint a larger version of this one soon. This is the same boat that is in my recent painting "Checking The Traps".

Aah, Summer!

Checking The Traps, 20x16 oil on canvas, ©2012, Fay Terry

This painting will be in my upcoming show in 
Southport, NC, at Franklin Square Gallery

The study for this painting was done a few days ago on an 8x10 panel, and I had such a great time working larger for this one.
 It was a sparkling clear morning in Maine when I spotted these lobstermen while we were coming back from Cape Porpoise, Maine in my cousin's boat. I was lucky to get such a great photo to work from since both our boats were in motion. 
Now I am really excited about painting ocean vessels There are so many things I love to paint, and summer scenes at the coast are high on my list.
