Crimson Moon Over The Garden of Good and Evil Savannah Georgia
I have a fascination with the subject of Savannah of Midnight in The Garden of Good and Evil the famous novel by John Berendt,
the Bird Girl that was chosen for the book cover has become a symbol to me. The Mystery and History of a city that many call the most beautiful city in North America.
Crimson Moon over the Garden of Good and Evil is one of my many interpretations of the spirit of Savannah, where the old South and the New South are juxtaposed against the backdrop of Antebellum Mansions and Spanish Moss swaying in the hot Summer Breeze.

Jekyll Island Georgia large Impressionist oil Painting by Ginette Callaway
I
used to visit #Jekyll #Island off the #Georgia #Coast almost yearly
about 20 years ago. I stopped doing it about ten years ago. The last
time I went and stayed for a few days, was with my mother who visited
from Germany. What I loved most about Jekyll Island was that it was very
non touristy. There were only two restaurants and no stores other than a
small convenient store. Everything you needed, you had to bring from
the mainland, which suits me just fine, since I did the simple life
thing. It was only about a 30 minute trip off the Island, to get
everything you needed in #Brunswick Georgia.
It
was great to find an affordable beach front hotel, even if it did have
all the amnesties and there was no fast food place in walking distance,
which too suited me just fine. You could get a decent room for under 100
or tops 120 dollars a night with view of the ocean. it was a poor
man/women/s paradise back then.
All
I wanted was a place to escape and relax away from the usual noise,
yelling, running, music, and human entrainment activities that you often
find on beaches. On Jekyll Island you felt thrown back in to a time of
"before discovery" at least it felt that way.
Now
Jekyll island has been developed and when I took a short trip a couple
of years ago just to see I was shocked and left shortly.
Prices have shot through the roof and it's not affordable anymore for someone like myself.

There
was still lots of construction and everything seemed to have changed.
Where you once saw the ocean from the street there were now hills of
sand piled up. A fast food place was being build. I guess we can't
survive with at least one on every corner. A large convention center was
build right by the ocean.
I
said my goodbys and prefer to keep the memories of Jekyll Island from
15 or 20 years ago. I got to see the most beautiful sunrises just like
in this painting. All you heard were the ocean, the wind, the seagulls,
and you could see dolphins swimming and jumping off the coast. The trees
all grow toward the land, blown by the Atlantic winds, that blow
steadily, it all looks very unique. I walked the beach and there were
few people. Loggerhead turtle tracks and driftwood and to my happy
surprise NO litter, plastic bottles and other trash humans often throw
down wherever they stand. It was a magical place. I'll miss you Jekyll
Island!

Spring In Provence Commission Painting
This is my latest commission oil painting for a client in Nevada.
The painting is a 36 by 36 inch on canvas.
I have painted this similar scene before. it seems to be a favorite for many people and I do different versions. None are identical. My impressionist palette knife painting style which is very intuitive would not permit me to duplicate my work anyway and I have no desire to do so. It would be very boring and go against every fiber of my being.
I use a Provencal palette in this worlk, painted with brush and palette knife.
It takes about a month to six weeks to dry and then I will varnish it. I use damar varnish.
Damar is a resin that comes from a tree found in India and east Asia. Damar or Dammar resin dissolved with turpentine has been used as a picture varnish for oil paintings since 1826.
It is non clouding and non yellowing.
This painting will ship to my client in a couple of months.
If you are interesed in commission oil paintings please contact me.
