Boy is it cold outside! woke up to only a few degrees this morning ,went to 18 during the day and back down again tonight.
This is a scene I captured in town from my car and painted it in the comfort of my warm studio. Two years ago I had experienced painting Plein air in the White Mountains of New Hampshire at 14 below, so I know how it feel to be out in that kind of weather, I am glad I did it two years in a row,it was a challenge, but my arthritis couldn't take it anymore.
In this scene I liked the warm colors of the weeds and still the cool colors of the snow and icy waters.
this painting is available email me, nlcasey@charter.net $100.00 as is now ,when I frame it it will be $175.00

We have a challenge going on amongst my friends at the artists Breakfast club in Nashua, it was to paint something in blue one kind of blue and only with white and back , so this was my choice today, yesterday we had a fresh coat of snow and on my way to the studio I took a bunch of photos this one was at a Country club golf course on the river,i just couldn't resist that fresh look,i only used three sticks of pastel ,that is a challenge in itself! i did it fast and had fun doing it .

Down hill all the way

Chuck's blue truck
Watercolor 6x8 copyrighted 2011
Nita Leger Casey

We did get this storm , at 8 AM we had 18 inches by the afternoon we had two feet ,the nice thing about it , it looks beautiful outside. Nobody was out today except the snow plows .
I missed not seeing my friends today Wednesday is our breakfast club day so instead I told them I would paint a scene from out of my window , this what I painted the view from my home studio looks in to my neighbors yard , I always like that little barn in the winter , it has character , it actually had a red truck there ,but chuck has a couple of them and the other one is blue ,the red one would of compete with the barn ,artistic license always comes very handy, both trucks were very busy all day because they were doing a lot of plowing .
tomorrow it should be just beautiful when the sun will shine on that fresh snow .
