Caren Marie Michel. A Maine artist that can capture the vibe of such a great state – filled with beauty literally everywhere you look! Both her oils and pastels are quite wonderful… Continue reading “Featured Artist: Caren-Marie Michel!”
Mark Farina. He paints all subjects – all are just beautiful. It looks like most of Mark’s work is plein air (painted from life – outdoors) – he’s able to catch the spontaneity of changing light/colors. Mark’s studio paintings have the same fresh feel to them, they aren’t overdone – which is no easy feat!
Look how much life a little bit of greenery adds! I absolutely adored this huge dracaena that we had for years. Continue reading “A touch of green on St. Patrick’s Day! 🍀”

Rachel Pettit. Rachel is an artist from the Utah area – her paintings are stunning, I love the way she captures light and the overall feel of the area she is painting.
Charlie can be so photogenic – he is one of my favorite subjects. That messy hair, those soulful eyes and that happy look. His shadows blow me away, especially when we’re walking – that wild hair sticking out all over, makes me laugh…
Nicholas Coley. Now this is a talented artist with a very cool story – don’t miss it! I love the perspective of his paintings – it’s a bit different from the norm and I think it’s so interesting. My emails back and forth with Nick and with his wife, Tracy, tell me one thing… these are good people. It’s not easy to make a living from selling paintings, but it doesn’t surprise me that Nick can do just that. His paintings speak to you – the paintings are large and bold – and each has a different feel – love the signature too! I wish him much success! Continue reading “Featured Artist: Nicholas Coley!”
