I am looking forward to outdoor weddings and celebrations this coming season in New England. I have painted fiery sunsets, a blue moon on a May evening, and gray skies over the Atlantic.
And yes, sometimes there is rain and wind, and the tent-flaps are down! But amazingly, the party itself begins to generate its own energy and warmth. While making a painting, I focus on the camaraderie among the guests. The lighting and decor add a cozy and welcoming touch to the scene. As for uncooperative weather, I can always use my artist’s license to accentuate the positive!
