Hello All! Yes, I haven’t been around awhile as I put my Etsy Shop on vacation and took a mini vacation from everything for a couple of weeks since this coronavirus started. I hope everyone is safe and still healthy. Looks like we will be coming out of this slowly, but soon, I hope!
Anyway, I have sketched out 2 paintings that are yet to be. One is an Amish girl just staring out over the beautiful countryside leaning against a fence. I kind of want to have a sunset for a change and some rich colors, muted landscape background… and maybe she is holding some wheat fronds? A partial quilt showing on the fence, too? We will see…but she is started and I am very excited to finish her.
The other one is actually a picture I found of Scarlett Johansson for the movie “Girl With A Pearl Earring”, and this picture was found by mistake. I loved it as soon as I saw it, because of the setting and feel of it. I figured I would try it, but change it to look a little bit different, but keep the “feel” of it at the same time. Excited about this one, too!
The other paintings I am sharing are beachscapes I decided I would like to try. Hopefully, I will get better at this. I love the colors of the water and skies. I will be doing more of these, and I am looking to do more different paintings in the future. I will let you know as soon as I have more. Hope you like these!

[…] Cheryl McNulty Amish Art: Ah, the next best thing to comfort food during a pandemic? Comfort creations. I was hoping Cheryl would start a new one, and she has. Check out this Amish girl, she just has her sorta sketched out, I’ll be eager to see where it ends up. Click here to see the start of what will, I am sure, be a beautiful painting! […]
