Color Amidst The Pines

Spring Visitors, 6 x 6 " oil on archival panel, ©2013, Fay Terry

$100 includes shipping

I live in a Pine Forest area of North Carolina and beyond the lawn, most other areas are covered with Pine straw, which makes a great mulch for plants. I always love the way the flowers look against a backdrop of freshly fallen reddish Pine straw, it seems to make them stand out. I love they way these were swaying in a light wind and looking so dignified and regal. 
I rarely cut any of these and bring them in the house because I like to see them in their natural habitat. When I want some for a vase, I go buy them at  the flower shop so mine won't be depleted.

I hope you are having a day that includes some signs of Spring!

Thank you for viewing.

Spring Warmth

Any Day Now, 6 x 6 " oil on archival panel, ©2013, Fay Terry

This painting is a celebration of spring and I had fun using some of my favorite bright colors to make a warm painting of these perky flowers. Daffodils are such wonderful flowers and can transform a landscape with their shapes and color.

Daffodils

Daffodils And Shadows, 6 x 6 " oil on gessobord panel, ©2013, Fay Terry

$100 includes shipping

This pitcher is one of my favorite vessels to use as a vase.  I was drawn to the shadows on the wall as much as I was to the Daffodils. I am going to paint more of these because they are so much fun to paint.  
I would love to paint some that are growing outside but we are having another rainy day. The rain is helping the grass which is already beginning to green up from its winter sleep.

I forgot to tell you that we climbed Camelback Mountain Saturday while we were in Arizona and I  am pleased that I haven't even been sore. It's been a while since I have done much vertical hiking.

Please forward this to anyone you think would enjoy these daily paintings!

Fill The Vase


Fill The Vase
This is the time of year that I like to have flowers in vases all through the house. There is much to choose from right now with so many things blooming in the garden. Tomorrow I want to paint outdoors and find some Wisteria to paint, but there is rain in the forecast, so we'll see.

Daffodils


Daffodils
I am so happy to have a husband who often buys flowers for me, especially when he knows that I will love painting them. I worked on a couple of large paintings today and decided to paint this still life this afternoon.  I finished it just in time to watch Carolina play Vermont.

Blooming At The Beach


Blooming At The Beach

These daffodils love being surrounded by
seashells in the spring when they start to grow
on the porch.  The ocean air is most
refreshing after being underground all winter.
