This is a warm memory of a very hot day in Salado last spring. We had some good times with good friends down by the river behind our lodging. I'm glad it was purchased by a native Texas and neighbor! This painting is currently on display at my show at the Baylor Health Sciences Library in Dallas.

I hope everyone has a nice holiday with time for family and friends.
House Portrait by Ann McCann in Watercolor and Ink
I donated a house portrait to our neighborhood silent auction. The couple who bought it have a lovely old bungalow. Here is the portrait I created for them in watercolor and ink. The pink on the driveway has some sparkle in it!

SOLD- "Snowy Path in the Woods" by Ann McCann 16 X 20 Oil
A dear friend from grade school (junior high?) will be getting this painting for Christmas. I love to have my paintings on the walls of friends. She is from Michigan and can relate well to a snowy winter.

This is a scene from Big Bend State Park which is right near the National Park. The road follows the Rio Grande for miles and miles, and the views are spectacular. These lovely white flowers were blooming where we were there in December, along with road runners, javelinas, etc.

SOLD- "Pink & Red Poppies" by Ann McCann 9 X 12 Oil
I painted this with a client in mind, one who likes poppies. He bought it, and now the poppies have a good home. I love how the red poppies vibrate against the turquoise sky. They almost jump off the canvas.
SOLD- "Sunset Freighter on Lake Michigan" by Ann McCann 16 X 20 Oil
I was asked to paint this commission, a sunset on Lake Michigan with a freighter in the distance. This is a view from my clients' porch. The final painting is a composite of three different photographs. I had to do some research on freighters so I could understand the anatomy of these ships and define what I was seeing. Yes, that is smoke or steam coming off of it. It was fun working with all these beautiful colors.
SOLD- Path to Where? by Ann McCann 22 X 28 Oil
This is the biggest painting I have painted to date, and I really like how much "space" there is in it. It feels like a giant, deep forest which is what I was going for. It is now on display at the Dutch Art Gallery in their fall 2017 show. It was the first painting sold for this show! It is a happy painting, and I hope it brings happiness to the buyer.

Pink and Red Poppies by Ann McCann 9 X 12 Oil
I have been wanting to paint this image for a while now. I spent last Sunday creating it. Love the pink poppies! Since the Dutch Art Gallery just sold my "Plein Air Poppies," the owner asked me to paint some more for the gallery!
