"High & Low Tides" by Ann McCann 18 X 24 Oils

October 24, 2018

I thought it would be fun to combine these images as they are at the same place but different times. I really think they look good together. Such dramatic differences at the ocean!

Low Tide 72 7.jpg

"Low Tide" by Ann McCann 18 X 24 Oil

October 22, 2018

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.

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

October 01, 2018

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.

Cape Cod Cottages 72 7.jpg

"Summer Cottages" by Ann McCann 12 X 16 Oil

September 26, 2018

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 72 7.jpg

"Goldenrod Farm" by Ann McCann 16 X 20 Gallery Wrap Oil

September 24, 2018

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.

"Taos Gorge" by Ann McCann 12 X 16 Oil

There are some paintings that are hard to finish and this is one of them. I have made some more changes to the river banks and shadows. This was originally painted plein air outside of Taos on the Rio Grand.
