Between Day and Night

The camera and computer were having difficulty interpreting the colors in this painting. Every exposure resulted in values of blue that were completely different from the original painting. Pthlalo blues shifted from their red to green shades and visa versa. Ultramarines and cobalts popped out where they were never used. Who knows what other interpretations the viewers' monitors will express? And so, we're left with a simple twilight sky and a small pale moon accompanied by the day's last fading light.  - Nancy Boudreau

The auction for this painting begins at 7pm EST on Friday July 3rd and ends at the same time, Friday July 10th, 2009.

This is an acrylic painting approximately 5" x 7" on gessoed matboard. An original painting for sale directly from the artist.

Mitchell Farm

click here to watch the auction

Mitchell Farm in Southbury Connecticut, along the Housatonic River, under gorgeous skies. On days such as this, one can hear the droning buzz of remote control planes, being flown above in the upper fields. Corn grows on the flatlands along the river. The Shepaug hydroelectric dam, just upstream, quietly does it job, meting out water, so that there's always a dependable flow.  - Nancy Boudreau

This is an acrylic painting, approximately 5" x 7" on gessoed matboard.

Shapely Fields

click here to watch the auction

The fields along Spring Lake Road in Sherman Connecticut are manicured, seductively undulating hills edged with tidy trees, Elysian fields, a place of immense peace. This road is a favorite destination for a Sunday afternoon stroll. A walk from one end and back, past the lake, the hills, the nesting bluebirds and orioles, fills the soul with sun and a relaxed openness. This is a place that lives in the hearts of artists, one of which found himself living here back in the 1940's, through the difficult last years of his life - Arshile Gorky.
 - Nancy Boudreau 

The painting is approximately 5" x 7" acrylic painting on gessoed matboard, unframed and not matted. Painting is an original, for sale through eBay directly from the artist. Painting is signed and dated on the back with the above comments handwritten on the back of the art.

Wild Roses

How does one paint the smell of wild roses? Or is standing in a field, painting wild roses just an excuse for bathing in their perfume, thick in the warm humid air. - Nancy Boudreau 

The painting is approximately 5" x 7" acrylic painting on gessoed matboard, unframed and not matted.
