Catherine Nolin

I just finished this piece about an hour ago. The photo actually picked up all the color fleck and detail nicely this time. I thought of the title just a few minutes ago but I think it works Since this was a large piece, 24x36, I was able to combine my love of different period furnishings and architecture. I love the way landscapes and clouds were painted during the Renaissance period. I paint what I love. Beautiful blue Hydrangea reminds me of summers in Cape Cod. Lilies of the Valley that would just pop up despite our crazy unkempt yard. Ruby shoes just because I like the way they look. I saw the Chinoiserie high boy on Downton Abbey!
