"Ocean Waves" by Karla Nolan, framed painting on glass





The ocean never fails to fascinate me.  Being landlocked in Colorado, but happily so, I especially like looking at the waves breaking and the skies overhead.  It can be turmoil to paint, but, hey, why not give it a try, onto glass, no less!

"Ocean Waves", 5"x7" painting on glass (measured edge to edge glass) in frame shown, $125 includes s/h in continental U.S., Paypal accepted, click button below or write me for more information at KarlaNolan@gmail.com

"Purple Mountains, Amber Waves", original watercolor painting by Karla Nolan




I have always loved the song, "America, The Beautiful" and thought it might be an appropriate gesture for this special week, Thanksgiving and all, to salute this wonderful country in which we live.  I believe that the song was inspired by Pike's Peak here in Colorado and written by Katharine Lee Bates in 1893.

"Sand and Surf at Second Beach (RI)" by Karla Nolan, palette knife oil painting



I have a dear friend who lives in Middletown, Rhode Island, right next to Newport.  She is so fortunate to have a house right around the corner from this particular beach, "Second Beach".  Am I envious?  You bet I am!  Every day she can go to the beach and listen to the pounding surf, view the changing skies, the ebb and flow of the waters.  There are fewer experiences more soothing than the sound and feel of the ocean.  I think I'm due for another visit!

"SURF," daily painter ocean wave © Carol Nelson Fine Art


This is a wave I caught with my camera off Polihale beach on the western coast of Kauai. This beach is the farthest to the west of any beach in the United States. A seemingly endless stretch of dunes and surf, we only saw two other people as far as we could see.
We didn't venture beyond our ankles into the water because of the signs posted about fierce currents and undertows. Still, for land-locked Coloradans, it was a thrill to just sit and watch the power of the ocean.
This 12x12 original oil painting on gallery wrap canvas is available for $200, including a black canvas floater frame and shipping in the US/Canada. Click here for purchase information.
