Painting Graystones Preserve by Debra Tritt Kreiger



The Graystones Preserve is indeed a hidden gem in the Pocono mountains since 1934. Thanks to our member Elizabeth Gallucci for making the arrangements and giving us great tours along with her knowledge and history of the preserve. We  all had fun and picked up a few tips form everyone. What a beautiful place and we hit the perfect weekend. I painted three paintings. All are acrylic on canvas with the first one having a touch of oils. The first painting was our view from our cabin! The second is of Mud Run, which one part of the creek with a lot of rocks.! The last is a very peaceful still pond. The colors were fabulous.

"The American Alligator" by Debra Tritt Kreiger

12"x29" watercolor on 300lb Arches paper

 I just had to paint this huge alligator after an encounter. We saw him as he come out of the water to rest on a pond bank in South Carolina. It was so exciting to see how huge he was! Just fascinating and mystical. Doing my research I found out that the American Alligator is a huge conservationist of the everglades. Without the alligator holes many creatures such as snails, turtles, fish and amphibians would perish in the winter months. Just proves all Gods creatures are important to our environment.

" To Hear a Mockingbird" by Debra Tritt Kreiger

Sold!

I'm always happy and grateful when my paintings find a home. Thank you Perry County Council of the Arts Gallery in Newport, PA. and the new owners. 
There is always a story behind every painting. This painting evolved during a plein air painting trip on the Gettysburg Battlefield. He perched himself on top of an apple tree nearby and just gave us the dickens the whole time we were painting! I knew I would paint him later in the studio so I took careful notes and pictures to help the painting develop. I chuckle every time I see this painting just thinking about that day!
