Home, Hearth, Art and Whimsey



The grounds, the views, the gardens, the model railroad, the glass garden, the dinosaur garden and much, much more were tempting beyond reason. However, the misty, moisty day helped me to choose to find warmth, hearth, art and whimsey in the structure called The Barn. I settled in with my cup of coffee and found plenty to tickle my heart, my pen and my brush. I can't seem to resist well loved, artfully arranged interior scenes. Thanks so much to the Kane's for their most appreciated hospitality. Titles for these pieces in order: Cozy Chair by the Fire, Barn Kitchen, Table by the Window.

  1. I love all three of these. So beautiful. Your handling of the dishes in the cupboard as a design element is super. Wonderful loose paint. All a pleasure to view.

  2. Your sketches look even better on screen than in person, if that's possible! Really inspiring.

  3. I recognize that mutli-colored tile fireplace and the paisley chair. Lovely.
