    Beautiful painting. This is one of my favourite subjects and you have done a wonderful job. The reflections are amazing.

    Beautiful painting. Each and every element contributes to the serenity. I am scared of water because I can not swim, however, would love to take a dip into this one. It’s so cool. As an architect, I would love to move few houses to find more compositions. I am blind to lemon yellow shade, so what I see, no one else can. he he. Thanks for sharing this one…. Peace N Love from all of us here in India.

    Hi yimusjane , thankyou for favouriting Sprocket , he was a treasure and i miss him loads… thought id drop by and have a look at your work and i happened on this one, was wondering if it was Peggys cove, Nova Scotia ? I have done a watercolour of a similar scene and it made me smile that we are both fond of this image….looking forward to checking out the rest of your stuff (O:

  • Kate Eller replied

    Oh, you are welcome. Sprocket is beautiful. I have a beagle and she has that same sweet look. I know how much you must miss him. I just lost my beagle mix, Sophie She was only two. She is very much missed. There is a pencil drawing of her when she was a pup in my portfolio. You know connie…I am not sure but you may be right about this being peggy’s cove. I did this from a mag photo many years ago. Is yours in your portfolio? I must have missed it…I’ll go look.

    Ah, ah , I see a connection ! Thank you so much for the fav. I appreciate that.
    Your painting has certainly captured that NE Atlantic coast “feel”, with the rocks and the boat sheds on stilts. Good to see, Don.

  • Kate Eller replied

    Yeah….this has got to be in the same area. Thanks bunches for the comment and you are welcome for the fav. :)

  • arnene

    They say (?) all good things are worth visiting again and again. As you grow and evolve, your level of awareness helps you in finding altogether different dimension. Today, I found water as well as sky are the key elements of this painting. Beautifully done! I wished there were few human beings too! :-)

  • Kate Eller replied

    I don’t know who said that either, but it makes perfect sense. I know what you mean about seeing things which you might not see or be aware of at first viewing. I even do that myself, with my own paintings. I wish I had the time to “study” paintings as much as I would like. If you are like me, every time I see a painting in a gallery which I really like, I have to get right up to it and study the brush strokes. You are a very deep thinker Armene, and I appreciate your thoughtful comments about my painting.

  • arnene

    arnene

    Thanks for your kind appreciation. Neeta Ingle and Roland Roycraft paint without brushes or with minimum use. Try visiting their work too, both are outstanding. This painting has a meditative mood too.

  • Alan Harris

    Alan Harris

    lovely use of colour !!!

  • Kate Eller replied

    Thank you Alan. I have noticed that this has turned out to be a popular location for painting. I have seen several renditions of this same scene on RB.

  • Lynda Robinson

    Lynda Robinson

    Really stunning work Kate! The reflections in the water are excellent, and I love all the red bits which lead the eye around the painting. I love arnene’s comment too. Must look up those artists he mentioned.

  • Kate Eller replied

    I don’t know how I missed this. Thanks for the sweet comment Miss Lou. You say the nicest things…....:)

    looks like the capeann i left a thousands years ago in another life- the sea has always been a special place for me as i lived on it 4 years and by it the first 17 years of my life now i live on top of a mt in the inland of oregon where there is not lots of rain- nice art

  • Kate Eller replied

    You do sound like a transplant from another life…...and a real lover of the sea. What the heck are you doing inland on top of a mountain???? Thanks loads for the very nice comment “Mad”.

  • Kate Eller replied

    Hi there Countrytennis. Are you a tennis player? Thank you for your lovely comment. I think the reflection is probably the most noticeable part of this painting to most viewers.

  • Colin Cartwright

    This is a beautiful version, Linda. Wonderful reflections.
    I’ve just seen Connie’s, and I thought it looked familiar! I’d just viewed yours a few days ago (and favorited this) – and I remembered the way the American wooden building angles, related to each other – as a painter I notice these things!

  • Kate Eller replied

    Aha Colin…....I think you might be seeing some off angles on my part. I did this a very long time ago and when I look at it I want to re-do so much about it. My late husband owned a small chain of seafood restaurants years ago, and he gave me the project of painting paintings for these restaurants. I had to do them quickly, so he set me up in a little office and said “go to it”. I did, and in a hurry to get them done, much of the perspective is not “spot on”. Many of them are in my portfolio on RB, but some were sold and I never made photos of them. You have the painters eye Colin….that’s for sure. We see little things, compare, and study….where the non-painter would not. Thank you kindly for your thoughts and lovely comment…AND for the fav.

  • Colin Cartwright

    Colin Cartwright

    That’s an interesting story, Linda. Sometimes the quick ‘on the spot’ paintings can look fresher – unlike the overworking of some – being a beginner, I tend to overwork mine, as they rarely look right to me!

    I can’t see any perspective inconsistencies here, (they usually stand out straight away). The whole image is beautiful, and seems to capture a moment of time of this fine little harbour.

    I hope your paintings are still adorning the walls of those restaurants,or somewhere where they can be appreciated!

  • Kate Eller replied

    What an absolutely beautiful comment Colin. I so look forward to your thoughts about my work…....and I especially look forward to seeing yours. Talk about “spot on”. Yours always have that professional “masterworks” look. It is very hard to believe you are a beginner. A natural artist I would say. Thank you for another very lovely comment.

  • Bob Hardy

    Wonderfully done Kate. A masterpiece! :)
