"Happiness in the Adirondacks" ~ 18" x 24" A Painting a Day Luminous Hudson River School Landscapes by Connie Tom


This is another intense study of one of the Hudson River School Master artists, Frederick Edwin Church. He and Albert Bierstadt are my two favorites. I love their lighting effects. This work pictures a panaramic view of a lake in the Adirondacks Mountains located in upstate New York. This boater is out for a wonderful time taking in the spectacular beauty of God's creation. Enjoy!

"Storm Clearing Over the Catskills" ~ A Painting a Day Hudson River School by Connie Tom


This was another intense study I did of Hudson River School master, Frederic Edwin Church's original. It is painted on a 24" x 36" gallery wrapped canvas. He, Albert Bierstadt, and Jasper Cropsey are my favorites of this first major art movement in America known as the Hudson River School, because of their dramatic lighting, mood and atmosphere. ~ Enjoy!

"Silvery Blue" ~ 12/03/07 A Painting a Day by Connie Tom



The colorful autumn birches stand out in a pleasing to the eye contrast against the silvery blue waters of this mountain lake in the Adirondack Mountains of upstate New York. Enjoy!

"This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth. For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word (the Son), and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one." ~ 1 John 5:6-7
