Here is the companion to “High Tide.” Again, this was the beach we visited daily while we were vacationing in Cape Cod. I was drawn to the reflection of the white fluffy clouds in the small pools for water.
"Alhambra Palace Garden" by Ann McCann in the 2018 Dutch Art Gallery Fall Show
This is the second painting of mine that was selected for the 2018 Dutch Art Gallery Fall Show in Dallas. Pictured is one of the many flower gardens at the Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain. The opening and reception is on Saturday, November 3, 2018. The Theme is “Around the World.”
My painting “Seville Oleanders & Palms” was selected for the Fall Show of the Dutch Art Gallery in Dallas. The theme is “around the world” which is great for me as many of my paintings are from European trips. This scene is a city park in Seville where the flowering oleanders are as big as trees. The opening is Saturday, November 3, 2018.

"High Tide" by Ann McCann 18 X 24 Oil
This was the beach we visited daily near our cottage in Wellfleet, MA. This is what it looked like at high tide and sunset. I found out that low tide is beautiful too and that painting will be next.
"Summer Cottages" by Ann McCann 12 X 16 Oil
This was our beach this summer in Cape Cod. We saw it several times a day. This was at high tide. Those grey cottages look like summer to me.
"Goldenrod Farm" by Ann McCann 16 X 20 Gallery Wrap Oil
If you get hay fever beware! This goldenrod has taken over the Connecticut farmer’s field and doesn’t know its a weed. It sparkles in the sun.

Ann McCann at Dutch Art Gallery Self-Portrait Show on September 6
On the left is the photo I shot from my computer camera. We had to remove all the extraneous things in the background which is why my hair looks squared off. On the right is the portrait I painted. I chose to add a lot of color to the painting and enlarge my eyes a bit. I was going to make them smaller but decided I liked them better big!
