AUTUMN GLOW
An Original Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

This Autumn, the leaves were absolutely spectacular

up on the mountain. I really loved the way the

sun was behind the trees, illuminating the beautiful

colors of the leaves.

This painting is one of the paintings that will be on display
for my exhibit at Brath and Hughes Fine Art Gallery during the
month of December. The opening reception is Friday evening,
December 7th from 6 to 9 P.M.

...WHILE THE SUN SHINES
An Original Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

'...While the Sun Shines'
Oil on Linen Panel
16 x 20

This is another painting from the Bream Farm, which is right
down the road from where I live. As most of my followers
know, I have a passion for hay bales, and this scene
with the early evening summer light was impossible to resist.

BREAM FARM ROAD
An Original Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

'Bream Farm Road'
Oil on Linen Panel
20 x 24

The Bream Farm is right down the road from where I live,

and the owner has graciously allowed me to come

and take photographs, as well as let me know

that I can come there to paint any time. I just loved these

rolling hills with the rows of corn following the contours

of the hills. A bit of heaven on a early summer evening...

WINTER'S LIGHT
An Original Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

'Winter's Light'
Oil on Panel
4 x 8

I am hoping that we get some snow this winter. This

was painted today from photographs I took two years

ago. The late afternoon sun was creating some

gorgeous color on the snowy hills.

TINY NEST 2
An Original Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

'Tiny Nest 2'
Oil on Panel
6 x 8

About a year ago, I painted this nest as an ACEO,

and as soon as I had finished it I knew that

some day I wanted to paint it on a larger scale.

I just loved those little eggs peeking out of

the bottom edge of the nest...

AUTUMN SOFTNESS
An Original Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

'Autumn Softness'
Oil on Panel
8 x 4

As the leaves start to fade and fall, the soft russets and

yellows complement the purple haze of the mountain

in the distance. Although I love the intense colors of

the leaves when they are at their peak, this softer side

that they display is just as attractive.

This small painting is going to be delivered to the

Carlisle Arts Learning Center next week along with

four other small paintings I will be taking there for

the CALC Art for the Holidays, which will be

held Nov. 19 through Jan. 5. I hope that you will stop by

and see all of the wonderful things they have on

display, and support your local artists :)

ARABESQUE
An Original Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

'Arabesque'
© Claire Beadon Carnell
Oil on Archival Linen Panel
18 x 24

I have been playing with composition with the last few
still life paintings I have done, and with this one I tried to
push it as far as it would go and still work. I had SO much fun
working on it, and it didn't hurt that it combines
deep pink tulips in one of my favorite vases - a
Fenton Cranberry Opalescent hobnail.

AT WATER'S EDGE
An Original Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

'At Water's Edge'
Oil on Linen
14 x 18

When my husband and I were up in the woods last weekend,

I decided to hike down to this small pond that

is adjacent to our property. As I got closer,

I was getting hints of a beautiful shade of red.

What I found was a perfect place of solitude. There

were no other footprints than mine and those of some

deer who had stopped to take a drink...so it

only seemed fitting that I add a doe along the water's
edge in this colorful autumn scene.

NEWVILLE FARM QUILT
An Original Plein Air
Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

'Newville Farm Quilt'
Oil Plein Air
(View from the Clearing 10/14/2012)
10 x 20

Perhaps one of my favorite places up by our cabin

is this clearing that displays an amazingl vista of the farmland

and Blue Mountain Ridge below(this is only a small portion of

what is visible). We have put a picnic

table there where we can sit and absorb the view. While

I was painting, there were Redtail hawks circling in the sky

and screeching out their distinctive call. They floated on the

air currents, and like myself, just enjoyed the quiet beauty of the day.
