B&B and Powers Court

These two paintings were done in the past couple of months from photographs.  Powers Court is a lovely estate south of Dublin and this is a castle tower on the grounds.  My daughter took the painting and encouraged me to paint it.  The painting is hers.
The B&B is on the Chesepeake and Delaware Canal in Maryland.  It appears to be quite quaint and I couldn't resist painting it.  We were attending a wedding that weekend and were playing tourist earlier in the day. It was a beautiful day.  We had a great lunch on the water and the wedding was lovely.  The bride is a beautiful young lady whose mother (my first cousin) unfortunately had died a couple of years earlier from a horrible disease--ALS.  We were happy to attend such a joyful occasion.
