October Light
12 x 12
I can't get enough of the light at the beach these days.
It's so dramatic!
I guess I'm storing up for those cold and dark winter days ahead.

About My Painting
- Nancy Colella
- Norwell, Massachusetts
- I am a full time oil painter living and working the South Shore of Boston. My goal as a painter is to say as much as I can, with as few "well placed" brushstrokes as possible. My paintings are intuitive and spontaneous, meant to engage the viewer in a specific moment in time. This blog is designed to share a quick glimpse into my process of painting. All paintings are for sale by contacting the artist. saltydogstudio@comcast.net
