New Work~Forget Me Not

Forget Me Not is my newest painting.  I was in the mood to paint a still life this week.  This piece is 16x12 painted on gallery wrapped stretched canvas with acrylics. The sides are painted so no frame is needed.  It's wired and ready to hang.  If you are interested in this painting it can purchased here:  www.catherine47.etsy.com or  www.catherinenolin.org
Thanks for stopping by.

Help one another; there's no time like the present and no present like the time. ~James Durst

I am looking forward to Monday. Whenever I see someone write"TGIF"  on  Facebook, I think to myself how I feel the opposite.  TGIM~Thank God It's MONDAY.  Monday's are my favorite.  I formulate all my inspiration from the weekend into real ideas for paintings.
Thanks for stopping by. Happy Monday!~

Art and Quote for today~

"And the songbirds keep singing,
Like they know the score"  Fleetwood Mac-Songbird
I love that song btw.  Since my husband will be going to the Bruins game tonight, I am having a long day/night session in the studio.  It seems  lately I've had so much going on with Sam 's health that I haven't been able to really get lost in my work but today is the day! I'm happy and he's doing better.
This fine art print is available in my etsy shop.  https://www.etsy.com/listing/90872206/the-bird-watchers-fine-art-print?ref=shop_home_active I painted this piece in 2009.  It's still a favorite of mine. My new painting is about birds as well. Thanks for looking.

Beacon Hill Art Walk


Another fun but HOT day at the Beacon Hill Art Walk in Boston Sunday.  It's hard to believe it was my 12th year showing my work. It was great seeing so many supportive customers and friends.  As usually,  I am bursting with inspiration and so ready to get back into the studio!  This month, along with creating some new pieces, I will be working on  some very cool commissions as well. 
Also be sure to check out my annual "Cleaning Out the Studio Sale"  On Etsy

Beacon Hill Art Walk~This Sunday in Boston, MA.


" There shall be eternal summer in the grateful heart. " ~Celia Thaxter

I 've been pretty busy getting ready for  the Beacon Hill Art Walk in Boston this Sunday from 12 to 6. This is my 12th year showing my work.   It's going to be a beautiful but HOT day. I am looking forward to seeing so many of my wonderful customers who have come every year.  The show itself is quite unique.  It takes place through out the nooks and crannies  of Beacon hill.  Art work is displayed in the lovely court yards and gardens  of this Historical place. 
Hope you can stop by!
