So, I am having a sale on those paintings. These sale prices are NOT listed on my website, so you need to contact me directly if you are interested (alouisemccann@gmail.com). This painting would make a great holiday present!

$275 Originally, now $206 + 8.25% tax

These flowers are the staple of gardens in Santa Fe. You always see beautiful turquoise doors with red hollyhocks growing beside them. These hollyhocks are thickly painted with various shades of pink and white.

This field of zinnias was at Wild Seed Farm in Frederickson, Texas. I was there in September 2019 for a plein air painting contest, and it was 100 degrees! The zinnias seemed to love the Texas heat. A frame is also available.

This gothic stairway is in the Edinburgh city park. I painted it when I was in Scotland last year. The flowers in the park were gorgeous. The pink flowers and the green grass were so bold against the grey stones and rainy Scottish skies. A frame is also available.

Gilded Roses 72 7.jpg

"Gilded Confetti Roses" by Ann McCann 12 X 12" Oil

November 16, 2020

Here is a second flower painting on gold gesso. The gold shines randomly throughout the painting, especially around the flowers. The various colors of the roses remind me of confetti. This is a very happy painting.

French Chair Roses 72 7.jpg

"French Chair Roses" by Ann McCann 9 X 12" Oil

November 11, 2020

This painting is all about flowers, the roses in the vase, the flowers on the French chair and the suggestion of a rose bush in the background. It feels soft and invites you in.

Gilded Iris 72 7.jpg

"Gilded Iris" by Ann McCann 10 X 10" Oil

November 09, 2020

I painted this iris still life on top of a gold gesso layer. The gold shines randomly throughout the painting, especially among the iris. Petals fall from the bouquet and drift down on the table. This for all you iris lovers!

SOLD "Peony & Lavender" by Ann McCann 9 X 12" Oil

Kind of hated to see this one go. I enjoyed looking at it and imagining a happier time. I would be glad to paint something similar for someone’s Christmas gift!

Marsh Clouds 72 7.jpg

"Marsh Clouds" by Ann McCann 12 X 12" Oil

October 28, 2020

We were driving around Nauset Beach, Cape Cod in September and spied this golden marsh. The ocean was just beyond the marsh in the distance. The clouds were stunning and I couldn’t wait to paint them.

Corsicana photo 2020.jpg

"Dancing Cones" by Ann McCann from the OPS Corsicana Show now back in Dallas

October 26, 2020

The Outdoor Painters Society Show in Corsicana was beautifully hung but poorly attended due to Covid concerns (understandably). Here I am masked for the outgoing reception. They did use my painting for advertising the show so I was pleased with that. This painting and one other are now back at home and available for purchase.

Tulip Parfait 72 7.jpg

"Tulip Parfait" by Ann McCann 8 X 10" Oil

October 21, 2020

These pastel tulips stand out against a gold gilt background. This is accomplished with a gold gesso underpainting. This painting truly glows.

Ball Jar Peony 72 7.jpg

"Ball Jar Peony" by Ann McCann X 10" Oil

October 19, 2020

I have always loved these old ball jars in their lovely shades of teal. I have a small collection of family owned jars that my Mom helped me acquire. They make great vases, and are very nostalgic for me.

Peony & Lavender 72 7.jpg

"Peony & Lavender" by Ann McCann 9 X 12" Oil

October 14, 2020

There is nothing so lovely as a pink peony. Combined with purple lavender, this scene assaults the senses of both sight and smell.
