About the Item

Summer on the Porch is a luminous 28 x 24 inch oil painting by acclaimed contemporary realist Carole Rabe, celebrated for her ability to elevate everyday moments into poetic visual narratives. In this evocative scene, Rabe captures the quiet, sunlit stillness of a summer morning on a porch—where time seems to pause, and light becomes the main subject. Soft beams of natural light stretch across cool gray floorboards and spill gently into the garden beyond, illuminating the space with a golden calm. Rabe’s nuanced palette of dusty blues, sage greens, muted lavenders, blush pinks, and creamy yellows exudes a sense of warmth and intimacy. Her confident brushwork and subtle use of texture bring atmosphere and emotion to every surface. Perfect for collectors of plein air painting, modern impressionism, or interior-themed art, Summer on the Porch invites reflection and serenity. It’s a timeless celebration of domestic tranquility and the meditative beauty of light in space.
