North Country beauty

Nita Leger Casey
 I was thinking a few years ago I painted in the White Mountains of NH, It was so cold but beautiful, this is a painting I had done then from the small village below the Inn were we stayed, at the time it did remind me of the Adro Hibbard paintings I had seen in magazines, since then I have seen over 150 of them last fall in Rockport, MA, I must say I really love his work, but then again I love New England! We are waiting for more snow tomorrow more paintings to be done!
this painting is sold.

This was a challenge photo given by my friend Denise to paint during our recent snow storm,well this was before the storm! we got about 24 inches and grounded by the Governor to stay home and off the road, it actually worked very well and our cleaning crews did a wonderful job on the Massachusetts roads .Today was a beautiful day and I did take a lot of photos, and this is why I love New England snow and all !

 Winter in New England is actually not that bad because the sun shine most days compared to a winter where I come from in France when the days are cold ,damp and grey, This is why I love New England ! and the nice red barns, a sunny day also has so many beautiful shadows, a painter's dream !
Enjoy today's winter scene.if you have questions email me . nlcasey@charter.net
