Shrouded Sun by Alison Vernon 24_30, oil with palette knives on canvas www.alisonvernon.com I painted this painting about four years ago. It captures a strange moment in the day, dusk with the sun peeking through clouds like a ghost. It was probably in November because November in New Hampshire has the most spectacular skies, also the leaves are off the tree. Shrouded Sun sold yesterday. It went to a wonderful family so it will have a good life 1 comment

Dinghies by Alison Vernon 15_30, palette knife oil www.alisonvernon.com I just spent the last week at two crafts festivals. To be juried into these festivals, these artists must be at the pinnacle of their careers. There is nothing visibly remarkable about these people, no indication that they are stellar crafts people. But the beauty of their work is breathtaking: furniture, quilts, jewelry, ceramics, and more. Some of these pieces took a lifetime to perfect and are so unusual 0 comments

Lake Sunapee by Alison Vernon www.alisonvernon.com 20_24, oil The New Hampshire lakes have a magical draw. The water is dreamy. Last night, after a day in the 90's, we all went to our favorite (secret) place on Pleasant Lake and dove in. The worries and stresses of the day washed away. Our body temperatures cooled to normal and, that night, we slept like babies 1 comment

Old Man by Alison Vernon www.alisonvernon.com 16_12, oil The Old Man in the Mountain was a symbol of New Hampshire. Years of high skilled volunteer effort kept gravity at bay. Rocks were cabled to other rocks, concrete and glue were used where cables could not reach. The Old Man fell several years ago. But we still get pleasure from his image 0 comments

Commissions

This is a commission painting, "Fortier's Grandchildren". I have been extremely busy painting commissions over the last few months. For the first time commission sales have surpassed my regular painting sales. I love painting commissions because they always present a challenge because I'm painting something I normally wouldn't have done. Also, for me, I love the thrill of pleasing people with my art. www.alisonvernon… Continue reading… 0 comments
