RIPPLES AND SHADOWS
Original Plein Air Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

'Ripples and Shadows'
Oil   6 x 8


Whew...finally got my new power cord for my laptop and
have the laptop up and running!  Our Plein Air Group, the
Susquehanna Valley Plein Air Painters went to Children's Lake in
Boiling Springs last Thursday.  It was the first sunny day we
had in many days, and it was wonderful to be out in the fresh
air painting and watching the fishermen fish in the 'Catch and
Release' section of the stream.  More pictures of the artists at
work are available at the SVPAP blog.


If you would like to see more of my work,
please visit my website or my blog. If you are
interested in purchasing any of my paintings you see
here on this blog, please contact me.

Beautifully moving stream... colors are vibrant!

I agree with all of the above and also love the great sense of the water's depth, the volume and shapes of the rocks and the way they enhance the waterfall.

Wonderful rich colors! Just beautiful!

Claire, the colors are marvelous. I love this painting, and we were just photographing at Boiling Springs within the past few weeks. It was not nearly such a nice day as you had, but I did get a couple of shots to work from.

Feels very real Claire. Nice and fresh, just like spring.

Thanks so much, everyone. We were so lucky to have a nice sunny day to paint!
