Impressionism Still Lives!
Essex Cat Boat from South Cove - morningAs a former art student, I can never get away from first falling in love with the works of Manet, Monet, Degas & Renoir. There is something so magical and transcendent about this style of painting. One of Connecticut's best in this genre is Leif Nilsson. Originally from Old Lyme, CT - a town that could be described as a painting itself, Leif now resides in the other quintessential Connecticut River Valley town of Chester. I don't pretend to begin to have this kind of talent but am certainly inspired by someone making mucho dinero doing something they love. Below are the artist and his studio.

I will stop by your blog often. I wanted to respond via email, but couldn't find an address. We are currently in the process of finding the perfect location to purchase a b&b - that's our soul feeding dream job. Thanks for the reminder :) g
You asked about my photos...I had to change them to sepia thru my photo software. I use to have a camera that took B&W photos BUT I dropped it on my fornt porch...concrete and cameras don't mix well! :-(
Have a great day!
