Joanie Kennedy Reflections At The Turtles Nest

I love painting at the beach! I am fortunate enough to spend a lot of time at the NC coast in the Spring and Fall. My past creations, plenaire painted garden scenes of the South East Piedmont, were an exploding palette of subtle colors and shadows of the humid landscape. My paintings now contain more lines, bolder color with an almost harsh contrast of bright sunlight and shadow. My subject matter is the disappearing scenes that make the East Coast special… old wood fishing piers, crab pots from the fishermen, wooden rocking chairs, sand fences, and also the twist bridge that guards the entrance to Topsail Island, NC.
