Oil 11 x 14
When our plein air group, the Susquehanna Valley Plein Air Painters
went to Wildwood Park in Harrisburg, PA to paint last Summer,
I wasn't able to go. Fortunately, I was able to get over there while
the yellow lotus and loosestrife were still blooming and I got some great
photographs to use as references for this painting.
I loved the low-hanging limbs of the tree on the left, and the
way the mountains, Susquehanna River, flowers and fields created
these terrific bands of color.
If you would like to see more of my work,
interested in purchasing any of my paintings you see
here on this blog, please contact me.

Beautiful Claire! I remember our discussion at Gallerie 13 about just how vivid that pink really is. Love how you handled the trees.
Very peaceful and clam. You really captured the mood!
My favorite of yours - by far!! I absolutely love the composition of this painting- it invites you into the woods with tranquil beauty.
6 stars out of 5!!!!
So warm and friendly. Love that mountain and hint of a field in the distance.
This painting gives very nice fresh feeling, Claire! Of course we all love Wildwood to start from... What a great place to be along with Nature!
Beautiful work Claire. This is such a wonderful piece with a romantic feel to it. Such a calmness about it. I love it!
Thank you all for the very kind comments!
(Mary Beth - I was on the boardwalk of the park, so that bit of light you see peeking through the trees is the lake.)
Great painting Claire. I like the depth and romantic feel of the painting.
Thanks, Deb!
