8×8″ oil on gessoed artist panel; not available for sale.

I have a sister-in-law who is also an artist. She does wonderful photography and pottery. This scene is of one of her recent shows that displayed both.

I try to remember what one painter taught: that painting is all about the light. If you can study the behavior of light on objects, you can better render reality. Easy to say; intense to pursue. I like to think that life is all about the light…of truth, goodness, beauty…

Meet Sr.Maresa

I am Sister Maresa Lilley, a member of the Sisters of Notre Dame, located in Chardon, Ohio, USA. For many years, I have enjoyed a passion that permits me to reflect upon simple reality with a brush in hand. To capture a simple essence on canvas and to discover inherent beauty is a daily immersion.
