Spring

'“Everything is flowing —going somewhere”

John Miur

A solitary frog sat at my feet on a lily pad as I painted him.

fiddleheads from the ostrich fern and wild ramps are sought by those who know

lady unfurls

Gurgling, gurgling ceaselessly, the whole year through; Surely it is alive! Meaning , saying something, of course, if one could only translate it.”

Walt Whitman

Summer

“To the attentive eye, each moment of the year has its own beauty”

Ralph Waldo Emerson

bog island

Life persists __ regenerating the forest and the sea.

Fall

I’m more like the beech trees,
which cling to the husks of their leaves long into spring…

James Crews

Beech seen

mirror fall

I prefer winter and fall when you feel the bone structure of the landscape…

painting nature in Maine

You might tramp (like me) slowly thru Maine, finding your favorite moments…

Every day in Maine brings a new observation. These are some of mine. I paint and observe closely These are nearscapes rather than grand scenic views. As always, I am mesmerized by water in all its permutations.

Anne Scheer’s vitae is  here.

Visit this website often. Currently I am adding to my summer paintings. Pick a season to see: spring, summer,‍ ‍fall, and winter.

I recognize that my paintings are of indigenous land. In addition to the Abenaki, the broader place we now call Maine is home to the sovereign people of the Wabanaki Confederacy: the Penobscot, Passamaquoddy, Maliseet, and Mi’kmaq peoples. Maine exists on their unceded beautiful homelands.
