I painted my neighbor’s beautiful flower bed with bees and butterflies several years ago. This is the first time I saw it in situ in her kitchen. It looks great!

The opening is this Saturday, November 11 from 11-5. Come early, 11 or so, and you will get a goody bag with a free painting in it. At 2:00 they announce the prize winners.
I plan to be there from 12:00 to 2:30. However, I am still walking with a cane, and my new knee doesn’t bend very well. I may tire out early!

"Goldfinch on Thistle" by Ann McCann 8 X 10" Oil Accepted into the Dutch Art Gallery Show Opening 11/11/23
This painting features the male goldfinch that visited our birdfeeder every day at the Cape. His paler mate always waited patiently while he ate voraciously. Gold calligraphic strokes add some whimsy throughout the scene.

This painting features a blue-black swallowtail butterfly on daisies against a warm, glowing sky. Gold calligraphic strokes add a touch of whimsy.

"Daylily Cottage" by Ann McCann 9 X 12" Watercolor
Before the daylilies bloomed, this little Cape Cod cottage just blended into the surrounding greenery. Then the flowers bloomed and WOW! The orange and yellow daylilies sparkled. I posted a much smaller sketch of this a while ago.

"She is Always Waiting" by Ann McCann 12 X 24" Oil
This pair of goldfinches visited our bird feeder daily on the Cape this summer. He was usually eating and she was waiting (on top). They were always together. They are so lovely and bright in the garden. The underpainting is gold so that shows thru, especially where I added some calligraphic lines (see lilies).
