About the Item

"Pool and Forest" Oil on Canvas, 18 x 14 Inches, is a small landscape with lush green foliage in the top half and a bright blue swimming pool dominating the bottom half. Reminiscent of David Hockney's swimming pool obsession, but with an exquisite and detailed landscape filled with trees and lovely dappled light at the edge of the pool. Additional photos can be sent showing more details. MacNeille has an amazing ability to paint water and sky and the romantic effects of light at all times of day. Her subjects extend far beyond her native Massachusetts to include an equally impressive series of paintings of Niagara Falls both small scale (12 x 12 inches) and large (48 x 48 inches), snow scenes and landscapes.

Classic Pool, Oil Painting
By Mitchell Freifeld
Located in San Francisco, CA

"They have even turned on the light in their excellent example of a classic mid-century kidney-shaped swimming pool, so that everything glows all shades of blue on this midsummer's eve."

On the drive home after being laid off the day of the September 11 terrorist attacks, he realized life is short...
