Sayago's Cafe


Sayago's Cafe
6"x8" Oil on panel
$125.00 unframed

          Sayago's Cafe is located in a planned community just south of Charlotte in Baxter Village in Fort Mill, SC.  Baxter is a lovely town lined with streets bustling with shops, restaurants and other small businesses.  My "plein air buds" frequently eat lunch at Sayago's when we paint in Baxter.  In fact, we will be having a showing of our artwork on the sidewalk in front of Sayago's on Friday evening, April 27, 2012.  If you are in the area, come on by, eat and maybe take home a piece of original artwork.

Stacked Stone Wall

Stacked Stone Wall
9"x12" Oil on canvas panel
$325.00 framed


Today my plein air buds and I travelled a whopping two miles from my house to Providence Presbyterian Church and Cemetery.  The oldest grave dates back to 1764 and the present sanctuary was built in 1858 and is the oldest frame sanctuary in the country!  I drive by this property every day but never went tromping through the woods and graveyard before.  This stacked stone wall grabbed my attention immediately and the sun was peaking through the new growth on the trees in just the right places.
