Surprises can be found on little side streets in Santa Fe. Here was an adobe house with a beautiful turquoise door and trim. With the mountain in the background and flowers in foreground, this captures the magic of the southwest.

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

"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.
