“Just Passing Through” 8” x 10” Pastel $75 © Sharon Lewis Click Here to Purchase |
I love catching sight of a beautiful Great Egret. They glide so quietly through waterways like these marshes, on their long slender legs, heads bobbing with their pointy, dagger-like bill searching so very patiently for food.
Happy Weekend!

“Still Light” 5” x 7” Pastel $50 © Sharon Lewis Click Here to Purchase |
That quiet time at the end of the day when the bird calls diminish or they call “See you later, it’s been fun!” …when the sun inches closer to the horizon, off to brighten someone else’s day, when the water and the wind still after playing madly all afternoon. That’s what I’m trying to capture here….the quiet, the stillness of near-night, almost darkness but still light.
Happy Weekend!

“Will’s Favorite Color” 8” x 10” Pastel $75 © Sharon Lewis Click Here to Purchase |
My little grandson Will’s favorite color is red, which he will enthusiastically tell you any chance he gets. In the midst of gloomy, grey, winter days, I think red is becoming my favorite color as well. It’s one of the many reasons I hate taking down the Christmas decorations (often red) since they offer these cheerful color notes throughout my house. And it’s also the reason, much to the chagrin of my daughter, why I love keeping the poinsettias alive long past the holiday season.
Hope you’re enjoying a little of your favorite color and a Happy Weekend!

“Where the Cows Roam” 9” x 9” Pastel $100 © Sharon Lewis Click Here to Purchase |
We’ve had more rain and grey skies this week, leaving me longing for a glimpse of blue skies and sun. So, of course I manufactured the sky I was hoping to see this week and for a brief period of time, I was in this landscape, remembering the smell of freshly cut grass, the sounds of birds, and the distant lowing of cows.
Hope your skies are sunny. Happy Weekend!

“Remember Summer?” 12” x 12” Pastel $175 © Sharon Lewis Click Here to Purchase |
It’s been grey and rainy this week, already reminding me that our glorious fall weather is coming to an end. So lately, I find myself drawn to images of summer or spring, when color returns to our landscape. The reference photos for this painting come from a summer hike in the Swiss mountains, where I spotted these beautiful wild flowers amongst the rocks.
Happy Weekend!
