Peconic River Herb Farm

While driving on the Eastern end of
Long Island, we stopped at the herb
farm which is 14 acres of a photographer's
or painter's "paradise" full of colorful
flowers and old cottages like you see
here.

    Paintings of doors are great because there is no doubt about the focal point. You did a beautiful job,

    Looks like I could reach in and touch the little tree. Colors are so soft and lighting is beautiful.

    Me gusta el contraste del rojo y azul. Es una magnífica obra. En español para que lo practiques.
    Now in English, I need to practice it. Red and blue are a pretty contrast. It's a beautiful work and well done.

    Mom...I am biased that all of your work is wonderful but I REALLY love the way the door came out. The reflection in the window gives it a sense of wonder and mystery since I am finding myself trying to see what's in the reflection! Love you and your art.

    Hi, Hilda,
    Your doors always kindly invite viewers. So charming. Amazing! This is pastel that I have no idea. You have to teach me how to do it one day!
    Best wishes, Sadami

    What a fabulous painting!! Ooh, that place sounds divine! Don't suppose I could talk you into joining PMP and sharing some of those yummy photos? :-)

    PMP is a website where artists and photographers post photos for others to paint. That way artists don't have to worry about copyright infringement. It's a great site. Lots of great photos... check it out... you might find lots of inspiring subjects that you'd like to paint!
