Charlene Sloan |  Hopkins, Laura-Winter Day's EndFIRST PLACE
I love the way this painting looks in its ornate gold frame. Winter twilight is one of my favorite times of the year. The bare trees allow the landscape to open up and the muted colors of the landscape are the perfect foil for fiery and bright sunsets. I hope that this nostalgic scene offers you the comfort and peace I felt painting it.

Debbie Cadenas |  Sharpe, Susan-JanuaryIn January 2020 we had a heavy, wet snow. All night and all the next day the air was extraordinarily still while the snow continued. I started this painting from a window, around three in the afternoon, looking west at the snow balanced on every twig. True confession: I am using a photo of this painting with a red border as my Christmas card this year.

 fink-leanne-Midsummer Cloudburst-oil--coA fiery bank of clouds filled the sky as streaks of rain could be seen approaching in the distance. I could see the scene reflected in the backyard swimming pool almost perfectly until the wind kicked up and blurred it. The heavy July air laden with heat and humidity evoked a feeling that is unique to summer in Virginia.

They are begun with rough shapes and a pattern of light and dark and are then developed with layers of opaque paint and glazes. Underlayers peeking through providing interest and visual texture. Use of the palette knife in places also provides a randomness that provokes
creativity and often takes me on a path I had not planned.

Jill Garity |  Padilla, Chito-Woolgathering in SpringThis painting captures that modern-day meaning of the word “woolgathering” - indulgence in aimless thought or dreamy imagining. It was an enjoyable experience to create this piece without a set image in mind. It’s carefree as if to say, “my wits (or my mind) went a-woolgathering" - in other words, "my mind went wandering aimlessly."

The grass had the light green color of spring so were a stunning contrast to the trees. The morning fog hung in the air but was beginning to give way to the bright sun. The scene caused me to lose my breath it was so perfect and peaceful.

 Sharpe, Susan-Fauquier VillageHume, actually, but it could be anywhere in the piedmont. I like the long light of winter afternoons, and the way oak trees hold their leaves into November. I like unrest in autumn skies, with their promise of wind and freezing nights. I often use a camera and a sketch pad both. Back in the studio, I put these images together with memory and a little creative freedom to make a painting.
