Memories of Maine Series
East Pond Shoreline WIP
by Claire Beadon Carnell
'East Pond Shoreline'
Work In Progress
Oil 20 x 30
First, and most importantly - my prayers go out
to all of the people of Haiti, and all of their relatives
around the world waiting to hear if their family
members are safe.
I just started this painting today, and
it is perhaps the painting I wanted to do most
from my memories of Maine. It's a little area
that was located to the left of the dock by the
cabin we stayed in. The minute I saw the glow of
the rocks in the water and the rippling waves, I knew
I had to paint this.
My only wish is to get this
to look the same way it looks in my heart.

There is something so special about finding a location that absolutley calls you to paint it. The work is already done in your mind. You did a beautiful job with this scene and I hope to see it in person.
Claire, I admire the sensitivity of your spirit and how that shows in your work. There's a gentleness consistent in your paintings.
You establish your values early on in your paintings...I admire your skill at that. It really shows in your end result.
