Brandy With Fluted Roses Frame
"The image I portray in Stepping Stone Cottage, second in my Sweetheart Hideaways series (a romantic retreat nestled deep in the woods) has come to mean a great deal to me.As I paint, I imagine a drama unfolding. I wander aimlessly in the forest until I happen upon a stream, which I follow will a growing sense of discovery; surely, something quite wonderful awaits just around a bend. Then as I pause under fragrant boughs of flowering dogwood, I catch a glimpse of my cottage across the waters, nestled in an arbor bright with blossoms, perfectly safe and secure, invitingly comfortable.
Perhaps that cottage represents the refuge of my love, my family, my art, or my faith. Perhaps all four; they are intertwined in my life. I'm delighted that there is always a way to cross the water -- a bridge or in this case, natural stepping stones -- leading to the welcoming unlocked door.
Once in the sanctuary of Stepping Stone Cottage , my love and I may simply sip tea and watch pink petals float by. We may take to the rowboat, or explore the nearby woods on foot or horseback. There are so many delightful possibilities."
