My drawings and paintings on exhibit!

Posted on by

Many of you know how much I love Sandy Neck and the Town of Barnstable is now hosting an exhibit of my ink drawings and paintings done at Sandy Neck or inspired by the nature there in the large Town Council Hearing Room as well as the smaller hearing room to the side. They are hosted through the Art on Loan program through the HyArts Council and will be on view through October 18 during regular town hall business hours.

Some of what will be on display include these pages from my watercolor sketchbook, painted on location….

are good rainy day activities when I can’t get outside and this week I had plenty of opportunity to do some painting.

I painted this little chipping sparrow yesterday. I am working on a project that will involve a lot of detail and since that isn’t my usual way of working I am practicing with little pieces like this one.

Today I painted these little diamondback terrapins from a photo I took a few years ago while working at Mass Audubon’s Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary. They may look small and cute but this tiny painting took hours to do!

Both these little paintings are now for sale in my MaryRichmondDesign shop on Etsy.
