Christmas in Wachapreague, by Carrie Jacobson

Christmas in Wachapreague, by Carrie Jacobson
Oil on canvas, 10x10
At the height of the summer, 200 people live in our little town. In the middle of winter, I imagine it's less than half of that. But every holiday season, the volunteer fire department strings lights over Main Street. It's one of many small things that I love about our small town. I painted this on site at dusk on Christmas Day.


Here's my painting in the landscape, before the lights went on.

October, Ocracoke - by Carrie Jacobson

October, Ocracoke
Oil on canvas, 16x20, $560


This painting captures the wind and power of the weather in October on Ocracoke Island, off Hatteras on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. I went there thinking I would paint the ocean, and instead, fell in love with the dunes. It felt like I was painting the spine of the earth.
