I love this small town! the summer it is full of tourists, about an drive from my house ,it makes a nice Sunday ride .
Would make a nice present as well . email me if you are interested  nlcasey@charter.net

We had open house at the studios today , so while I was greeting guests ,I was also painting and demonstrating ,talked to a lot of people, to some it was their first time coming in the building and they where so surprised to see the amount of art in one place , I must say I have not myself found everyone because of the size .
Hopefully my husband will come home from the hospital tomorrow , life should get a bet easier with the trips back and fourth and my poor Clancy missed his dad !
I did managed to finish this watercolor , it is somewhere on Cape Ann , a wonderful art colony outside of Gloucester. email me if you are interested .

What a night we had last night! with over 60 miles an hour high winds , the coast had it worst and still have no power in many towns in the area .
I had painted these boats during the week from the town of Gloucester , we had stopped over last week and I took a few photos , I have painted some of these boats before actually on location at a better time of the year like Spring . It's a wonderful town to capture the New England fishing life , these boats have characters, they are like old man who have wrinkles ,they have lots of rust that tell the hard life they go through.

"Post card from Cape Ann "

Street scene #4 of my series of Cape Ann , while I was working on this , I taught! OK this looks like a post card , as an artist it's kind of looked down painting like a post card , but this town is a touristic town and it looks like a post card , so here it is , it's not like I was working on a huge masterpiece for a show . it certainly would be a nice addition to someone who has summered there and has nice memories of the place . email me if you are interested nlcasey@charter.net

"The Gallery" watercolor 5x5 (c) 2010

It sure felt like Spring was around the corner today , it was a beautiful sunny day.
Started my day going to breakfast with Tim to one of his favorite place in Nashua , and after took my car to Jiffy lube , it's always an experience going there ,Tim usually takes it and does it for me , but I am the chauffeur now! So if you have gone there you know how they operated I must say they have to be the best salesmen , I wish I could be like them selling my paintings ! it was kind of funny listening to the guy with every costumers , well $150.00 later my car was ready for another 3000 miles , now the regular price of oil change is $ 29.95, so I would say he certainly did a good job with his salesmanship.
Artists need to take there courses!
So later on this lovely afternoon , I painted this scene of last Sunday in Rockport, my # 3 street scene of this quint village , like I said yesterday Rockport has many galleries with many very accomplished artists .
