The reality is, winter is still very much with us in New England and snow is abundant! This beautiful old house in Harpswell, Maine was graced with a brand new shingled roof just before winter. After a few months, the cedar shingles, then a bright burnt orange, have already weathered into a beautiful silver gray.

With several feet of snow covering the grounds of New England and frigid temperatures, wouldn't you want to be looking for shade in a hilltop village of Provence right now? I certainly wish I were there!

There are many intriguing and spectacular entryways lined with cypress trees in the Provencal countryside. You get curious and want to walk down the path to check out what the house hiding around the bend looks like. These entryways are usually private and you just have to leave your curiosity to your imagination. I could not go beyond the open gate of this private property in the village of Tourtour but there was no sign that said I couldn't paint it!

Lavender comes in different tints of violet from the palest to the more saturated. Lavender fields can range from a light grayish violet to a pale pinkish magenta or purple as well as a pale blueish indigo. I find them all stunning.

An interesting tidbit for painters out there, a tint is the mixture of a color with white, which increases lightness while a shade is the mixture of a color with black, which reduces lightness.

Come and see this painting at our "Postcards from Provence" show in Yarmouth, Maine on February 12th. Hope to see many of you there!
