I am working on ideas for paintings that are “outside the box” for an art exhibit.  Here I used the image of my opening flowers (Monday’s blog) but mixed it up with drips and other strokes.  Here is the result.

Opening Bouquet 72 7.jpg

"Opening Flowers" by Ann McCann 11 X 14" Oil

March 20, 2019

I arranged these beautiful roses and irises for my art opening last night. Attendees encouraged me to paint them so I did. I painted then fast and loose. I think they capture the feeling of the event and the lovely time I spent with everyone that came.

"Garrison House" Portrait by Ann McCann 8 X 10" Watercolor

March 18, 2019

My former neighbor asked me to paint her old house that they built and where her kids grew up. This house is right next to me in East Dallas. So, I could run out and check out the details when the photos failed me. These portraits make nice gifts for yourself, family members. or new home owners.

"Mom's Day Lilies" by Ann McCann 9 X 12 Oil

March 11, 2019

Mom always had a big bunch of day lilies in her garden. They grow effortlessly in Michigan, or else she made it look like that. I have had no luck here in Dallas. This painting will be at my show at the Baylor Health Sciences Library opening on March 15.

SOLD- "Purple Touch Poppies" by Ann McCann

March 06, 2019

An attendee at my retirement/art party last Saturday at The Garden Cafe in Dallas bought this painting. We all seem to have a love affair with red poppies. If you ever get a chance to sit in a field of them, take it! I had my opportunity while visiting my daughter in Jerusalem.

Red Poppies with Purple by Ann McCann 9 X 12" Oil

February 25, 2019

I did a workshop with Patrick Saunders in San Antonio last weekend for painting flowers. Here are the red poppies I did. Everyone loves red poppies. The purple in the center really pops. It would be fun to paint giant red poppies.

Rice Field 72 7.jpg

"Low Country River" by Ann McCann 16 X 20 Oil

February 13, 2019

I saw this scene at the Middleton plantation outside of Charleston on the Ashley River. Before the Civil War, this was used as a rice field which was backbreaking and dangerous work. I was attracted to the cloud reflections in the water and the tiny strip of land with the distant trees.
