Happiness IS being an artist at the Ocean Drive Gallery, Vero Beach, FL

3349 Ocean Drive, Suite 8, 2nd Floor.
A very exciting moment in time for me. I am thrilled to be included with Elise Geary, Margaret Goembel and Gail Fayerweather.
Plus, I will share more art very soon.
I am so thankful for my friends and clients who share their "Cree paintings' in their own spaces. Happiness is an awesomely personal choice. I am glad I can assist!
Friends are often wonderful contributors to my website.

Having lived in Princeton, NJ for 20 years, my husband and I made many friends before our moves to CA and to FL. Friends are always a special treat to enjoy. And, having friends who like my art and wanted a "Cree" original is always extra special.
The colorful painting on the far left was commissioned by my friends for their living room.
It looks wonderful in their eclectically tailored home in the Palm Beach area.
My friends are happy and so am I!!!

Sometimes with the help of a friend, or even a
son-in-law, people from around the country
find out about my work. This photo was
shared over the holidays. Our friend Priscilla continues to be happy with her
Cree painting in Indiana!
Happy Days!!!

Aways fun to share pleasant news
"Dreams Last Forever", oil on canvas, 40 x 30" is hanging peacefully in a beautiful home in Winter Park, Florida. And, seeing the painting in place pleases me to no end! Thank you!!! I am very grateful for clients sharing their purchases with me.
This painting was one within an orchid series included in my "Color, Texture, Love" show in La Jolla, CA a few years ago. What fun it is to remember that show and the people who so kindly attended the opening night celebration and enthusiastically shared their appreciation for my art! It is also very nice to have the painting close to me and the opportunity to visit my very special friend! |

In Place: more photos of images from clients who have shared their delights!

This painting is hanging in an early cottage -- said to be over 100 years old. And, the gardens that surround this special place are simple, lovely and well nurtured.
It appears that Cree's painting is bringing the sunshine into the cottage in more ways than one.

The couple who proudly displays their Cree painting loves their contemporary home and the soft palette of her paintings. This isn't the only piece they have, but they exclaimed "Your paintings add a touch of our travels to remind us that we are the luckiest couple we know!"

One lucky client has a favorite painting over her bar in her newly renovated home. She enthusiastically shared this photo exclaiming that "your painting makes my home sing! Thank you very much!!!"

transforming a condo in Upper State New York...
The art of painting is a fascinating process for Cree. Her discoveries go far beyond the canvas. She appreciates the friends she has made, especially the expanded network of artists
and art appreciators. There also is the happenstance situations that simply fall into one's lap. She accepted the challenge of being responsible for "staging" a condo for re-sale. Her re-arrangement of furniture, the placement of new art and existing art created a warm and inviting place to live! The unit sold along with these three paintings by Cree. Fun!!! |

a short story
A lovely La Jolla resident recently passed away. Barbara was
the very good friend of Cree's dear friend. The three ladies
often had lunch together and enjoyed one another's company.
A few weeks after Barbara's memorial service, someone found Cree's website on a google search and contacted her to share she loved Cree's work. (How nice!) The emailer was most interested in a floral painting Cree had done that was at auction. (painting to the left)
The painting had belonged to Barbara!
After a few weeks passed by, Cree learned that the emailer was unable to win the bid for her painting, but she certainly was kind to fill Cree in on the details.
So...if you see "The Sunshine's Pirouette" hanging anywhere along your travels, please let Cree know.
