Best Garden 72 7.jpg

"Best Garden Ever" by Ann McCann 9 X 12" Oil

October 12, 2020

My neighbors on the corner have the best garden all year round. This is their lovely fall garden. They also cultivate bees and butterflies. I enjoy it everyday on my daily walks around the neighborhood.

Provence Poppies 72 7.jpg

SOLD "Provence Poppies" by Ann McCann 9 X 12" Oil

October 07, 2020

Who doesn’t love poppies! These were fun to paint in vibrant reds, pinks and purples. The shapes of the poppies opening up and blooming are actually pretty abstract.

SOLD "Ivory Dream" by Ann McCann 9 X 12" Watercolor

October 05, 2020

In the early part of the pandemic I focused on watercolors. A client in Canada just purchased this last week. It’s great to have international customers! I have a lot more watercolors that are available here at my website.

Coventry lake sunset 72 7.jpg

"Sunset Over the Lake" by Ann McCann Chosen for the Dutch Art Gallery 2020 Fall Show

October 01, 2020

I saw this sunset while having dinner overlooking Coventry Lake in Connecticut. When I started painting it, I thought the sunset would be the centerpiece. Now finished, I think it is the water. The Dutch Art Gallery Show “The Magic Hour” will open online November 14, 2020. You can visit the gallery, but there will not be a reception due to Covid.

Peony Shutter 72 7.jpg

"Peony Shutter" by Ann McCann 6 X 6" Oil

September 28, 2020

The blue shutters on a window in Provence are a great backdrop for these pink peonies. That lovely blue color is also reflected on the underside of the peony. This painting is currently available for purchase at the Dutch Art Gallery in Dallas.

"Coventry Lake Sunset" by Ann McCann 12 X 12" Oil

We were lucky to catch the sunset as we ate at the restaurant overlooking the lake in Coventry, CT. It was cool, sweater weather, as we enjoyed our seafood dinner.

Goldenrod Flowers 72 7.jpg

"Goldenrod" by Ann McCann 9 X 12" Oil

September 14, 2020

This is not a commonly painted flower, but a field of them is gorgeous. I see a field of them every morning, glowing in the yellow sunlight. The goldfinches like them too!

Hydrangea Path.jpg

"Hydrangea Path" by Ann McCann Travel Sketch Watercolor

September 10, 2020

When I am on vacation, I like to do small watercolors of my favorite scenes. They are fairly quick and are lovely memories. Sometimes they end up as oil paintings when I get home to my studio. This scene was in Chatham, the town where we stayed in Cape Cod.

Pink Sky Revised 72 7.jpg

"Pink Sky Moon" by Ann McCann 12 X 12" Oil

September 02, 2020

Right after the sun slips under the horizon, there are a few moments when the sky is filled with color and the moon appears. This is the moment I captured over the ocean in Old Saybrook, CT.

"Goldenrod on Trees" by Ann McCann 9 X 12" Oil

August 31, 2020

I have this beautiful field of goldenrod outside my window right now and can’t resist painting it. I don’t think I have ever seen anyone painting it so I may be unique!

There is a place in Storrs, CT called Horsebarn Hill where people gather for the sunset. Here is what I saw the evening I went there with 100 some UConn students.

Sun on the Pines 72 7.jpg

"Sun on the Pines" by Ann McCann 9 X 12" Oil

August 24, 2020

I have spent many hours gazing at these pine trees as the early morning sun shines through them. The light sparkles and bounces all around the trunks and the grass.
