Cair Paravel

“Cair Paravel”
Oil on canvas, 13″x21″ wide.

Artist Commentary: I spent Saturday at the mouth of the Great River, gazing northward toward the castle on the sea. With autumn’s calm, the skies blushed roseate; turquoise waves wandered and evening mists melted the rocky shoreline. Flags fluttered atop the white towers of the keep as emerald waters lapped at my easel. A single gull flew past, and I raced to trace the fleet golden glimmer of the fair castle walls while sun set beyond the Western Wilds.

Sonnet

“Sonnet”
Oil on canvas, 10″x8″ wide.

Artist Commentary: This fairy tale image features a maiden reading a book of poetry. The room seems old…perhaps in a castle? And there is a raven on a perch before her. Another figure seems to be standing beside her, looking over her shoulder. There are many curious features in the painting…dark shapes atop the bookcase, an icon and rosary on the shelves, someone’s cane leaning against the wall. What story is told by these, I leave to the viewer to discover….
