Clair Dunn, Northern Vermont Artist


My paintings here (most recent at the top) are sometimes related to the main theme of my work (see Background) but are mostly of natural scenes or phenomena. A number are in watercolors and I've always been interested in looking at watercolors that are light, evocative of place or mood. I'm interested in washes, weather, and a sketch-like approach. Above all, I paint because I cannot leave color alone. It consumes me. Though it rarely intrudes into the side of my brain that wants to take pictures.

NOTE: If a hand cursor appears over an image, that is a signal that there is more information about that image. If clicked, a small window will open. Brief notes on my paintings are in my painting blog--Vermilion Hue.
