Nelson Road Farm by Michelle Philip

6" x 8" Oil on panel.

I was out early today - on location and painting by 7 am. The morning light was absolutely luminous. We had rain last week, so the grass hay is looking very happy. This little farm used to have a large herd of horses, but it was sold recently and is sitting empty, the lush green grass ungrazed. My horse would consider this a criminal waste of photosynthesis.

New Zealand Sheep Farm

This is a little farm on the Coromandel Peninsula on New Zealand's North Island. It is near Coromandel Town. What a lovely spot - lush grass, peaceful sheep - behind me was the Ocean. I longed to live there, but the next best thing was to capture it in paint.

First New Zealand Painting

Here is the first of what I hope will be a large series of New Zealand paintings. It is a depiction of a typical landscape in Otago, South Island. Sheep are all over the place there.
