Sitting on the veranda facing this beautiful vista and its changing sunrises and sunsets is what we do when we visit Le Canon at the Gilchrist home of Patrick and Florence, parents of our close friends Seamus and Mia.

This is a painting of oyster beds in the Bassein de Archechon in the northwestern shore of France near Cap Ferret, an hour north of Bordeaux. It is also where Monet and other impressionists painted because of its beauty.

The house looks out at this vast water basin full of oyster beds. The raw oysters in all the areas of these waters are so fresh and delicious. We eat them at the little restaurant houses owned by the French oyster fishermen and enjoy the beautiful waterfront view and the changing sunsets.

This painting is sold, but an 8" x 10" print is available for $75 plus s/h.

Fall


Fall
30" x 40" acrylic on stretched canvas
This is one of a series of abstracts I did based on the seasons. It is my impression of the colors of Fall and is done on gallery wrapped canvas with painted black sides which can be hung without a frame. I currently have it in a wood floater frame which enhances its look.
If you are interested in purchasing this painting, please email me. I can also send you a picture of it in a floater frame.
This painting unframed is priced at $1300 plus s/h. The price of it framed in a floater frame is $1500 plus s/h.
