Swimming Pond at Cedar Valley Resort

Posted on July 18, 2011August 28, 2015 by Carol Berry

Carol Berry, Swimming Pond at Cedar Valley Resort. oil, 8 x 10 inches. ©2011. This is my first plein air landscape painting of the summer, done in a couple of hours, a month ago at our trailer park. Cedar Valley Resort is much more like an Ontario Provincial Park and is the opposite of average […]

Perrier Water

Posted on July 13, 2011August 28, 2015 by Carol Berry

Carol Berry, Perrier Water. oil, 8 x 10 inches. ©2011. After a whole year of planning and making a homemade pochade box, I finally used the kit and immediately found a critical flaw, I was tensing my shoulder because the palette was too high and close to the painting. I paid a severe price the […]

Tangerine

Posted on November 4, 2010August 28, 2015 by Carol Berry

Carol Berry, Tangerine. Oil, 8 x 10 inches. ©2010. This is another still life that I painted in our trailer one rainy Sunday last August. I was really pleased with this painting. I have always been in love with form and volume. Years ago I worked a lot in clay, always mindful of the play […]

Corn and Tomato

Posted on October 18, 2010August 28, 2015 by Carol Berry

Carol Berry, Corn and Tomato. Oil, 8 x 10 inches. ©2010. I set this still life up in our trailer during a rainy Sunday last August. I have really enjoyed working on smaller canvases this year, this is new for me. The reward is that I can manage to finish a piece in an afternoon. […]

Concession Road 4, Late Afternoon

Posted on September 24, 2010August 28, 2015 by Carol Berry

Carol Berry, Concession Road 4, Late Afternoon. Oil, 8 x 10 inches. ©2010. I painted this right at the entrance to our campground. I had motivation problems that Saturday and only finally started painting in the late afternoon. The downside was that the sun changed a lot more than I was used to, but the […]

View from Newcastle Harbour

Posted on September 17, 2010August 28, 2015 by Carol Berry

Carol Berry, View from Newcastle Harbour. Oil, 8 x 10 inches. ©2010. I loved painting this on location. I set up my gear on the breakwater near the lighthouse at the mouth of the Newcastle harbour. Besides the curious seagulls, a steady parade of large sailing cruisers motored past me while I painted which was […]

Concession Road 4, Orono

Posted on September 16, 2010August 28, 2015 by Carol Berry

Carol Berry, Concession Road 4, Orono. Oil, 8 x 10 inches. ©2010. It has been a fantastic summer, highlights include my new iPad and the dry, very warm weather we had in Ontario this summer! I’m very glad that I got out sailing in my little Mirror Dinghy at least a dozen times. The biggest […]

Walsh Road No.2

Posted on June 26, 2010August 28, 2015 by Carol Berry

Carol Berry, Walsh Road No.2, oil, 8 x 10 inches. ©2010. It is another rainy Saturday, so instead of painting I am finally writing this post. So much of my life is geared towards the summer month; sailing, camping and plein air painting. These major activities have to compete for my time with everyday chores, […]

Walsh Road No.1

Posted on June 16, 2010August 28, 2015 by Carol Berry

Carol Berry, Walsh Road No.1, 6 x 8 inches. ©2010. Finally, painting outside! It was an unusually warm day for the first weekend of June, so I wore short shorts, a tank top and crocs. I remembered sunscreen but I thought it was too windy for my fancy new plein air umbrella so I took […]
