Lake George Carousel

Lake George Carousel

I finally finished my carousel painting! I've been working on it on and off for quite some time now, but pushed recently to get it done! I posted some process shots of this painting a few months ago on my blog, explaining that I began it while I was living and working in a gallery in New York with Clint.

Lake George Village Carousel 

8"x10"

Acrylic on panel

I decided to post some progress photos of a painting I started a year ago when I was living in NY. It has a long way to go. I keep coming back to it in between paintings. Clint and I were living and working in a gallery in Bolton Landing. Lake George Village was only a few minutes away. I love that area! It's a cute little town on the water. This is a carousel we used to walk by all of the time. I'm excited about this piece and I'm looking forward to finishing it!

I've really enjoyed painting grapefruit, so I decided to try making a piece with oranges and lemons...I started the painting with the half an orange and lemon slice..when I was almost through painting them I thought they looked lonely, so decided to add the orange slice on the right..I think the composition is stronger now, and I really like the color of the foreground /background...I think it has a very Florida feel to it...

I was going through some stuff in my life when I painted this...Didn't realize the significance of painting  a pink chair in an empty room until much later...Thought about doing a series with the same  room as a background, but different objects and people in each scene...haven't carried it further yet...

Lake George Sunset

Acrylic on canvas

When I lived in upstate NY we would often go to the Algonquin restaurant down the street. I remember this sunset..we got to the restaurant early to see the colors in the lake and sky change..after grabbing a drink we headed to Lake George Village to walk around.  I thought the pinks, purples, and blues were really beautiful on this evening in particular.

This is a still life I finished not long ago, where the desire was to incorporate an object with a piece of fruit. I like the fairytale element and the colors. I've had this goblet for years and have always wanted to put it into a painting. The piece was on the easel in the photo which appeared in the recent Lake George Mirror article.

Taken from the dock of the Algonquin restaurant in Bolton   Landing on Lake George...The Algonquin is a fun restaurant because you can pull the boat up to the dock and have dinner outside under these umbrellas.... while getting a great view of the lake.The painting has a beautiful Larson Juhl frame on it and is currently available through Shelley's International Gallery Of Fine Art.
