East Coast Landscapes & Boats
About these paintings: "In my travels up and down the Eastern
Seaboard, both on the boat and by land, I have encountered some of
the most stunning landscapes ever. Our coastline is diverse and
bountiful in providing ample subject matter for me. Many of these were
painted on the docks or at the waters edge, some
are form photos I took as I wound through the marshes in the boat, all
are engrained in
my memory, forever. " Karen
Hewitt Hagan
The three starred (*) paintings
are the ones I did in preparation for the three larger paintings
in Figure 8 Yacht Club's Permanent Collection.
“Twenty years from now you
will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones
you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe
harbor.
Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
– Mark

The
Italian Paintings
About these paintings: " I have taught
painting classes in Italy and painted there for a few weeks for the last
5 summers. It has been one of the most fulfilling experiences I have
ever had. The culture, the history, the food...All such a sensory
experience and so intriguing to paint. The paintings below come
from Florence, Venice, Small Tuscan Villages as well as Lake Garda and
Santa Margherita." Karen

The
Abaco Islands
About these Paintings: "I have lived aboard a
boat for the last 8 years and for several of those years, I traveled to
the Abaco Islands and painted there. These paintings are from Marsh
Harbour, Hope Town, and Great Guana. Frequently, we would dock the boat
on one of the smaller islands, I would backpack across island and paint
each morning and afternoon. The people there were lovely as were the
harbors, beaches and landscape. Colorful, more so than most climates,
and it had a real effect on my color choices, even now, my paintings are
more colorful even when I'm painting the Charleston landscape.
Everything has it's effect on you, sometimes its powerful enough to
linger."
