Jerusalem, Rhode Island Marsh


I have been encouraged by a cyber friend, Patty Walsh http://pattywalsh.blogspot.com to show more of my work. This is a plein air work painted at Jerusalem, Rhode Island looking towards the small fishing port of Galilee. I love the biblical names that were chosen for these two areas. It was an overcast morning in the summer which turned into the most glorious day. One of the great challenges of working outside is when the light changes. Someday I will get the hang of it.

Seapowet Marshes



These two paintings I am posting are ones that I did when I painted near the Seapowet Marshes in Tiverton, Rhode Island. The leaves were not turning yet during this session but the marshes were showing signs of Fall with browns and yellows.

First Post

Hello,
My name is Jo Ann Elig and I'm a painter who lives in Warwick, RI. I intend on posting some of my work on this site soon. This is a painting that was done for a website called different strokes from different folks. My painting is called Three White Pumpkins.
