Nosy Neighbors Coronado Rose Cottage has been calling my name for a few months now, while I've worked on various projects and ignored the siren song. All of my images from my show on Coronado Island in the spring have been beckoning so I heeded the call and painted my first version of the award winning gardens for the annual Flower Show for 2012. There is a beautiful haze in the air on the island, and the sunlight is so gentle there, not like the cerulean blue piercing light of Santa Fe, New Mexico, and certainly not like the 400 degree beacon of Texas afternoon sunshine. It's definitely the perfect lighting for gentle souls on bicycles to pedal to their favorite coffee shop, spend the afternoon on the beach with the kids, and the evening on the porch rocker with a furry friend nearby. I'll never be able to afford to live there on this perfect little island, but I can paint it til the cows come home! Visit my art blog today to take a peek at my newest container garden, Wild Things Roses and Pansies. This four foot garden is a departure from my usual formula of blues, purples and orange yellow sunflowers. I focused on reds, burgundies, earth tones, terra cotta, and baskets. It is July in Dallas, so we are thinking warm in Flower Mound Studio!

"Ocean Road", this is a small painting, 6" x 8", oil on canvas panel.

The sun was shining. Seas were calming down. Overhead swallows and dragonflies patrolled. A feeling of warmth overwhelmed my senses...

Water Flow - Thaw Malin iii

"Water Flow" , this is a Small painting, 6"x 8", oil on canvas panel

This can be a good sunset spot from which to paint. At least on a night when there is some sun! It was spitting and misting this evening. I had to drive my van halfway down the path to be able to sit in it to paint and see the view. It's always worth the effort though...

Sunset Light - Thaw Malin iii

"Sunset Light", this is a Large painting, 24"x 30", oil on canvas.

This large painting was inspired by one of my smaller canvas panels. I had actually first painted this scene in 2008 as an 11" x 14" image. I revisited it as a small Daily Painting in early July of this year, and then in September when I created this larger version. It is a rather timeless image...
