Good Morning!

I'm back from a relaxing vacation! We went to Montauk, NY, Winslow's favorite place to go to the beach. He loves the cold weather, and we get a chance to relax, visit friends and spend a week just roaming around, reading, painting, riding horses and napping.

I was able to paint quite a bit and photograph a lot for future paintings.
I'll show some of those paintings in the near future. I have other news as well.
For now, I'm exhausted after a 7 hour ride, so here's a painting I did before I left last week.
Enjoy,
Until tomorrow,

Oil Painting "Montauk Morning"

Oil on canvas

Good Morning!
I have been thinking about Montauk lately. We go there every spring and I'm looking forward to the trip. I fully understand why so many artists made that area their home. Duchamp, Pollock and Krasner, Avedon and many others spent a lot of time in the area. The quality of light is amazing. I spend a lot of my time behind the camera, bringing home amazing photos to paint from. My paintings of Montauk are some of my favorites. This little study is yet another of my favorite area.
I'm sharing my studio with a young painter who has come to paint a portrait. Although I've been offering a bit of guidance, I'm not "teaching". The young woman is a painter in her own right and is doing a wonderful job. Hopefully, when her painting is finished, she will allow me to share it with my readers.
Until tomorrow,
Glynis

Oil Painting on Canvas- "Small Dune"

"Small Dune"
Oil on Canvas
11 x 14 Inches
Sides painted and gallery wrapped
SOLD
Good Morning!
It's spring and once again, my thoughts turn to Montauk. I go there every spring with the intention to paint. It rarely works out that way. Spring in Montauk is cold and windy, but beautiful. It lends itself more to photography than pleinair painting.
Winslow loves the beach and the cold weather, so it's a good vacation for him. I always have a good time, regardless of weather.
I have a larger painting of this dune from a different angle. You can view it on my website: http://www.glynisberger.com/ It's called "Dune" (go figure).
Enjoy,
Glynis
PS. Happy Birthday, Nancy.
