While I was making supper I looked out the window and saw this beautiful Sunset ,I  had to stop everything I was doing and grabbed my watercolor, I had to be quick! you know  a sunset does not last long, to even go faster I took an artistic licence to take the house out that was in my way.On the left it's an apple tree where many deer come to get the old apples .
this watercolor is available  email me nlcasey@charter.net

A Pine on the point

9x12 pastel ©2013
Nita Leger Casey
Still posting paintings from my recent trip at Pemaquid Point in Maine.This was done on a beautiful sunny day in Plein air! when the pines grows by the ocean they do take a funny shape and grow under or over a rock in a amazing way ! you couldn't plant that if you tried ,but nature has a way to do magical tricks! this past week i was not able to paint much with family duties and more to come this week so it is a good thing I had painted  some backup.
this painting is available,  $225.00  email me nlcasey@charter.net
