Daily Paintings and Pet Portraits by Elizabeth Fraser
Just sitting here playing with color in these two nighttime paintings of the Maine Coast. These paintings spell out tranquility to me … the color palette is a favorite of mine and the quiet of nighttime on the water is so calming. These paintings look so much better in person, but you get the idea. :-). I hope you are staying cozy and dry on this dreary day. I am thinking about you & sending much love your way. xox
Winter Moon • 6×6 • oil on canvas • SOLD
The full moon last week was so gorgeous! I didn’t witness it coming up over the bay, but I did admire it as it set at daybreak. Thoughts of moody night paintings and moons made me paint this imaginary coastal scene … I just love a nightscape!
Morning Moon, South Carolina – 5×5 – oil on canvas – SOLD
The sun rises a good hour later down here in South Carolina. My internal alarm clock is still going off at 6ish, so my morning dog walks are under the stars and the Moon. So Pretty & peaceful with the birds chirping. Here’s a scene from my morning walk today that just so happens to capture the South Carolina logo. 😉
Day Break at the Head Light & Happy Boston
12x12s • oil on canvas • SOLD
This day break … stunning, huh? I just love the silhouette of the Head Light & the hope that day break brings. So peaceful. And I couldn’t resist painting this Boston Terrier as it reminded me of our ball obsessed Zoe. When there is a ball around, playing with it is the ONLY thing on her mind. :-).
If I used YOUR image & you would like the painting, please click here for PET & here for SUNSET.
If you are interested in either of these paintings, please stay tuned until I open purchase info to all.
Merlin Kitty & Los Angeles Sunset
12x12s • oil on canvas • SOLD
Merlin!! Isn’t he adorable–so expressive. :-). And then the LA sunset … how cool to be able to paint a scene so outside my day to day scope. Thanks for sharing your images.!
If you are interested in either of these paintings, please stay tuned until I open purchase info to all.
Shacks by Night • 5×5 • oil on canvas • SOLD
Sometimes I just like to paint moody nighttime scenes. Today was one of those days, so I chose my favorite fishing shacks for a subject matter. I love the shacks in all kinds of weather & light.
August Moonrise • 5×5 • oil on canvas • SOLD
We got to witness the August full moon rising over Casco Bay & it was so gorgeous! Wow! It’s such a gift to call this place home.
The Cottage in North Hero • 8×8 • oil on canvas • $150
A painting from the show we did in Hudson, Ohio, in honor of my dad’s retirement.
Holiday Point in North Hero, Vermont is a second home to our family. For nearly 40 years my Dad has been spending each summer in this special place recharging his battery with golfing, boating, napping, swimming & soaking in all the beautiful views Vermont has to offer. Heaven on earth!
8×8 • oil on canvas • Lugares Exhibit
I have been busy getting ready for an art show in my home town of Hudson, Ohio! I am so excited for this show that I am collaborating on with my brother, Mike, of artbymichaelfraser.com. The show is titles called “Lugares, oil paintings of places that have touched Señor Fraser’s life.” Señor is our dad & he is retiring after 48 years of teaching & coaching at Western Reserve Academy. He has had a remarkable career and touched so many lives, so we thought it would be fun to do a show that centers around his travels and loves. All three of us love Van Gogh and my dad & I have both spent time in France, where Van Gogh spent much of his time painting, and we’ve seen many Van Gogh paintings & exhibits over the years. It only seemed fitting that I do a couple of square Van Gogh inspired paintings to include in our show. Cheers to Vincent! Details about the “Lugares” show HERE! We would love to have you drop by!
