BITS OF LIGHT
An Original Plein Air Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell


'Bits of Light'
Gettysburg Festival Art Colony  2012
Oil
10 x 8


On the last day of the Gettysburg Festival Artist Colony,
we decided to go to Little Round Top to paint
in the morning light.  It was a beautiful day, and I
really enjoyed painting this area that was directly
to the left of the 12th and 44th New York Infantry
Marker - also called the 'castle'.  I liked the impressionistic
look of the scene, and tried to capture that.

interested in purchasing any of my paintings you see

Claire, what a great job you did at Gettysburg. This one is my favorite. I really like the colors you have in your boulders. And, just like the impressionists, you captured that light.

Thanks so much, Pat. I had a great time painting that day!

The bits of light peeping through the trees does first catch one's attention even without this title, lovely!
