"Privy on the Prairie" 8 X 10" Plein Air Oil Painting by Ann McCann
We were recently plein air painting in OId City Park in Dallas near a lilac Victorian house. This matching privy out back caught my eye. Pretty cute isn’t it, set in a wildflower garden. It reminded me of my early childhood when my aunt and grandparents in rural Michigan still had outhouses. My grandparents already had indoor bathrooms, but still kept old chamber pots under the beds for night time emergencies!
"Lilac Hearts" by Ann McCann 5 x 7 Watercolor Card
I liked painting the heart shaped leaves of the lilac flower. I’m still building up my hand painted greeting card collection for the White Rock Garden Tour on May 21.
"Prairie on Fire" by Ann McCann 12" x 12" Oil
I painted this after a weekend of touring the wildflowers in Ennis, Tx and the Hill Country. My brain was on fire with all the bright images in my mind! We are definitely having a super bloom this year.
"Anemones on Bible Hill" by Ann McCann 2' X 2' Oil
This is the biggest oil painting I have ever painted! I wanted a square canvas, and this is the only one I found in my stash. Bible Hill overlooks the Old City of Jerusalem and featured lovely red anemones this spring. The castle-like building on the top is the Scottish Guest House, built at the turn of the 1900s by the Presbyterian Church of Scotland.
"Wildflowers for My Cousin" by Ann McCann Watercolor
My cousin lives in Georgetown, Texas and offered her house, so we could paint wildflowers in the Hill Country. So, I painted this one for her, bluebonnets and paintbrush.
SOLD "Poppies in the Valley of Elah" by Ann McCann
This painting of mine was just sold by the Dutch Art Gallery to a collector in Canada. Sadly, we visited this field outside of Jerusalem last month, and the poppies are no longer there. That makes the memory of the visit in 2019 more precious.
“Texas Treats” by Ann McCann 8 x 10” Watercolor
I plein air painted this in a wildflower field in Georgetown. What fun!!
"Texas Trio" by Ann McCann 7 X 7" Watercolor
My husband and I had so much fun sitting in a wildflower field in Georgetown, Texas, and painting the bluebonnets, Indian paintbrush and pink primrose.
"Almonds in Agur" by Ann McCann 16 X 20" Oil
These are flowering almond trees in an old village outside of Jerusalem, called Agur. These trees grow wild across the country. The old building is from the early 1900s or earlier. This was the view from a winery where we were enjoying local wines.

"Spring in a Pot" by Ann McCann 9 X 12" Watercolor
I bought this planter at the local nursery, North Haven Gardens, and had to paint it. It has tulips, daffodils, hyacinths and crocuses. It is spring in a pot!
"Poppy Blues" by Ann McCann 8 X 8" Watercolor
Its that time of year again when poppies and bluebonnets bloom again in Texas!
"Gelato with Cookie" by Ann McCann 6 X 6"
