These two commissioned firefly paintings were

'Evening Blues'
An Original Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

'Evening Blues'
East Pond, Maine

Oil

12 x 9

I finished this painting several months ago,

but just wasn't able to let it go out into

the big world right away. This is a painting

from the deepest part of my heart -

it is a painting of a place that I love.

I felt that love each time the

brush touched the canvas.

'Summer Along the Hudson River'
An Original Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

'Summer Along the Hudson River'

Oil

8 x 16

Last Summer, my husband and I traveled

to Albany, New York, and then down the

Hudson River Valley. The views were incredible,

and I found this one when we decided to take

a side road that led us right to the water's edge.

While there, we met four other people

visiting that spot, and we discovered that

the one couple was from the Army War College

in Carlisle (which is close to our home)

It IS a small world!

'Tenderness'
An Original Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

'Tenderness'

Oil

8 x 6

When I went up to the local orchard to

get my apples recently, I noticed this pear in

one of the bins. I was excited to see that the

leaves were still attached, and that they

hung at the top of the pear quite beautifully.

When I got home I set it up in the studio, and have

been working on it. Think I am done with this

tender little pear.

An Original Plein Air
Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

'Yellow Breeches Garden'

Oil

12 x 9

This magical garden is located along the

Yellow Breeches Creek at the home of

my yoga teacher. She was so kind to let

my plein air group come and paint there.

It was like being in a little piece of heaven...

'Zion Road'
An Original Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

'Zion Road'

Oil

8 x 10

I used to travel a lot on the Zion Road until

recently when a bridge was closed for repairs,

which unfortunately closed Zion Road as well.

It's a favorite place that I have seen and

admired in all of the seasons, and every time

I drive down it I get such a sense of peace.

Hope this painting gives you the same feeling!

'Spangler Farm Morning'
An Original Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

'Spangler Farm Morning'

Oil on Linen Panel

14 x 18

I have often been asked what colors I use to get
the wide variety of greens in my landscapes, and
it always surprises people that I get these greens
by using a very limited palette.

This Saturday (11/26/2013), I will be teaching
a workshop about mixing greens in nature at the
Carlisle Arts Learning Center from 9AM to 3PM.
If you are interested in attending, you can obtain
information about the workshop by contacting
Carlisle Arts Learning Center

Carlisle, PA 17013
Phone: 717-249-6973

'Battlefield Blues'
An Original Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

'Battlefield Blues'
(Gettysburg Battlefield National Park)

Oil on Archival Canvas Panel

24 x 18

I spotted these beautiful blue flowers up
on Little Round Top (Gettysburg Battlefield National Park)
one Summer morning when I had gone up there to paint.
It seems as though every time I go up there I see something
new. It's such an amazing place, and never fails
to intrigue me.

Note: This plant is known as Viper's Bugloss
(Echium vulgare), Blue Weed or Blue Devil.

'Midsummer Morning'
An Original
Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

'Midsummer Morning'

Oil on Linen Panel

12 x 16

Have you ever been driving somewhere and suddenly

have this irresistible urge to take a different

route from the one you normally take? I am

so glad I followed my instincts this past summer.

Instead of travelling my normal pathway to Hanover,

I decided to take another road and found this

incredible field of pinkish weeds

cloaked in the morning light.

This is why I always carry a camera with me...
