AWAKENING

This past Wednesday was a snow day - meteorologists

were warning of snow accumulations that could

amount to as much as 10 - 12 inches. I cancelled classes

for the day, and started to paint a Spring scene.

We didn't get the predicted amounts of snow, but

it was a great day for painting. This is a view

not all that far from my house, and is just one

of the many orchards in our area. I loved the

new leaves of the red maples, and all of those

glorious apple trees in bloom.

Spring stirs the land awake from a very grey winter!

Last Summer I was very fortunate to be able to
paint at the Eisenhower Farm, which is part of
the Gettysburg National Military Park. I did a small
plein air study, and used it along with some
photographs I had taken to do this larger studio piece.

The view out my dining room window this past Tuesday
as the sun was going down. The day had started with

a brilliant pink sunrise, and sleet and snow followed until

noon. These clouds were the remnants of the

winter's day.

MADE TO LAST
An Original Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell

'Made to Last'
Oil on Stretched Canvas
20 x 24
NFS

When I was only married a couple of years, my

mother handed me an old shoe box that had

the words 'Family Jewels' written on the lid.

When I opened it, I was quite surprised to find

some beautiful antique hand tools.

For years I thought about painting them, and

when one of my students offered to bring in some

more antique tools, this still life became a reality.

(Thank you Fred Baldwin!)

The amazing thing is that none of these tools

require electricity, and yet they still work as well

as they did the day they were made.

Most of these tools are at least one hundred

years old. Hope I am working that good when

I'm that age!

THE LAST BLOOMS OF SUMMER
An Original Oil Painting

'The Last Blooms of Summer'
Oil on Panel
8 x 6

It was a perfect day to work on this little
painting of some rose blooms that I had
plucked from my garden before
the cold and frost set in last year. It makes me think
of the warmth and sunshine of Summer, and
hopes that it brings that same feeling to you!
