Camp Merrie-Woode on Fairfield Lake is the scene of this painting. All is quiet and still as the cool mist and the warm sun rise for yet another fun-filled day at camp.

"Distant Old Bald" SOLD
Old Bald is the name of the granite-faced mountain which overlooks Fairfield Lake within one of the most beautiful locations in the region: Camp Merrie-Woode, an all-girls summer camp in Sapphire NC.
It's a magical place!

"Old Bald" - Fairfield Lake at Camp Merrie-Woode SOLD
9"x12" Oil on GessoBord brand panel sold
The mountain granite in the mornings glowed a cool blueish-pink contrasting beautifully with all the green trees. Had to try to capture this majestic icon of Camp Merrie-Woode!
"Virtuous Memorial"
12"x9" Oil on GessoBord brand panel
Camp Merrie-Woode's Chapel is located here (which is to the left just out of site of this vantage point). The small stone gazebo at the lake's edge is the Orr Memorial dedicated to the man and his wife who founded this wonderful girls camp. Inside inscripted into the stones at the tops of each pillar are the "Merrie-Woode Virtues" taught each young girl while camping at Merrie-Woode. Some of the virtues that I can recall are "cleanliness," "courtesy," "generosity," among others.. . I am certain a Merrie-Woode girl can help me out with the others! :)

"Merrie-Woode Morning" SOLD
9"x12" Oil on Linen panel sold
The Cashiers Plein Air Paint out brought us to a lovely place. The all-girls summer campground, Camp Merrie-Woode, proved an enchanting place for me to paint. . . I fell madly in love with the environment, the atmosphere, the campers and counselors to the point that I'd like for my own daughter to attend. This non-denominational Christian camp is a tough place to get into, so cross your fingers and pray for the best!
