It was a warm, rainy, misty day in Mahone Bay, but I was working on a piece of a bright sunny, cold day at Cresent Beach! Had this canvas on the back burner for a while. Sometimes I need a break from a painting before I get jazzed again to finish it. I've been working on a lot of small, fast pieces lately, so this was a nice contrast. . . #mahonebay #getthescoop #crescentbeach #novascotiabeaches #novascotia #canadianartist #beach #seashore #winterbeach #originalart #clouds #polarbearplunge #waves #oilpainting #interiordesign #artistsoninstagram #jillthirzacooper #jtcartist #artlovers #artcollectors #artbuyers

One of my favorite moments over the Lunenburg Craft Show last weekend was when a customer was SO excited to buy both my "Nique Petites" Viking prints as a wedding gift! Her friends are having a Viking themed wedding this summer! She plans to get them matted and framed. So awesome! . . #wedddinggift #wedding #vikingthemedwedding #viking #sheildmaiden #vikingwarrior #vikings #niquepetites #niquesea #lunenburgcraftandfoodfestival #lunenburg #novascotia #contemporaryart #artlovers #artbuyers #jillthirzacooper #jtcartist #interiordesign #artistsoninstagram #artbuyersarewonderfulpeople

The happy winner of the last free ORIGINAL Quickie! Normally the winners get a pick from the previous week's newly minted Quickies, but as the final one I opened up the whole collection that hasn't been sold or given away. Lisa chose Quickie #28! Congratulations!!!! Stay tuned for my next giveaways. Still figuring that out. In the meantime, I'm selling the rest of the Quickies for 50 Buckaroos! Have a scroll through the #50quickies and hit me up! :) . #50freebies #contemporaryart #congratulations #jillthirzacooper #jtcartist #artlovers #artcollector #artistofinstagram #canadianartist #eastcoast #mahonebay #southshore #clouds #orangeclouds #windy #colorfulsky #interiordesign

Some Quickies just aren't that quick to paint and y'know, that's okay. This experiment of painting 50 tiny paintings, really quickly, or trying to, anyhow, has been a wild ride! I've learned a lot and explored new subjects a heck of a lot faster than I would have in working with bigger canvases. I finished the senic Quickie (will post tonight) earlier, but this one, I'm taking a wee more time with! I just found out that our town is using Vikings as the Canada Day theme this year, so it has me inspired :) 🌊⛵ . #vikings #figurativeart #oilonpaper #tinyart #contemporaryart #artistsoninstagram #interiordesign #artlovers #artcollector #artcollection #blonde #oilpainting #jillthirzacooper #jtcartist #canadianartist #eastcoast #bridgewaterns #vikingwoman #strongwomen

"Carmel Curl" the forth in my "Clouds and Cream" collection. 16"×20" oil on canvas. I think this is my favorite of the 8! It's not the popular vote though. I think the surprise (to me) hit was "Vanilla Parfait". I enjoyed painting it but I've never been a vanilla sort of gal :) . #artshow #artlovers #art #painting #oiloncanvas #oilpainting #contemporaryart #waves #yellowclouds #greenwaves #purple #jillthirzacooper #jtcartist #interiordesign #artistsoninstagram #artcollection #novascotia #canadianartist #mahonebay #getthescoop

Tomorrow! I get to show all 8 of my new, east coast, ice cream inspired collection, "Clouds and Cream"! Here's one of my favorites, "Maritime Mint". A 16"×20" oil on canvas that captures a tasty snippet of cloud meeting wave. If you're near the South Shore, drop in to say hi Saturday night, at Get The Scoop in Mahone Bay! ☁🍧💙 . #artshow #artlovers #artcollection #maritime #clouds #waves #painting #artistsoninstagram #interiordesign #cloudsandcream #blueclouds #blue #ocean #seaandsky #jtcartist #jillthirzacooper #mahonebay #novascotiaartist #eastcoast #originalart #buyoriginal #buylocal #icecreamclouds #cloudporn

This is a wee part of the painting that needs the MOST work before it is ready to hang at "Clouds and Cream"! I'm getting excited though. I'm surrounded by the pieces as I bounce between them. They're so damn COLORFUL!!!! I'm so ready for summer!!! And ice cream! What are you looking forward to on this rainy Thursday?. . #waves #seaandsky #greenwaves #sunset #purple #ocean #novascotia #mahonebay #southshorens #artlovers #oilpainting #artcollector #interiordesign #artshow #jtcartist #jillthirzacooper #candianartist #eastcoast #studio #workinprogress #art
