Nancy Tankersley
Nancy Tankersley is an artist and teacher who paints mostly in oil. Initially a portraitist, she now moves fluidly between figures, landscape and still life.
MessageThis abandoned house on a remote peninsula in Dorchester County, Md will probably be underwater in 20 years, according to predictions on the rate of water rise in the Chesapeake Bay. Most likely it was once the home of a waterman or a farmer. I was drawn to the storybook quality of the scene, knowing that the bright sunlight disguised the sad fate that awaits the old home.
