Br-r-r!
With delicate flakes of snow falling outside, this little snow lady posed for paint. In a quick painting like this one, I am always trying to put more paint on the board with fewer strokes. Without a mouth, she seems to speak: warm hands, warm heart.
Chardon Home
The Sisters of Notre Dame live in Chardon, Ohio, USA. As a member, I grew up in body, mind, and spirit here, so it seems only fitting to welcome you to my blog with this simple, tiny glimpse of our Chardon home in summer time. This is a partial view over our front yard and across Auburn Road. We belong to the rolling foothills of the Appalachians and some of the greatest snowfalls of the United States. Nature is limitless in wonders here. I enjoy painting her seriously or just for fun. This little painting was just for fun after being far from home and far from my paint brushes for the last four years.
