Vacation in a Vase by Ann McCann 9 x 12" Oil
Between vacationing with family and friends in Connecticut and Cape Cod and taking an extended painting class, I haven’t posted much this summer. I had some time this weekend to paint what I wanted and hydrangeas was my choice. I actually picked this bouquet while I was on the Cape in Wellfleet. They were just growing n the yard!
SOLD Valley House Iris by Ann McCann 18 X 24" Oil

This week I am painting peonies in many different ways!
The Slab by Ann McCann 9 X 12" Plein Air Oil
We painted outdoors in Llano TX for three days this spring. We painted at the Slab, where there are great hunks of pink granite on the Llano River. One rock section spans the river, and cars can cross the water there. It’s a gorgeous spot that looks more like a moonscape, all pink and blue.
