I WORK EN PLEIN AIR, OUT IN THE COUNTRYSIDE… Welcome. I am back to painting again after a sabbatical that included a few pieces done for charitable fund raisers. I am continuing to make small, 6" x 8", landscape oils, but not every day. I am also working on larger pieces. Every time I finish a painting, I will place it here on my website. If you see something you'd like to purchase, email me. Thank you for enjoying my work and keeping me creating new pieces. Your interest stimulates and inspires me and has made me a better painter. Sign up for my emails and I will send you an image of each new painting. I love to paint and am happy to share my painting experience with you. Most of my work is impressionistic landscape oils, inspired by the beauty of the Island of Martha's Vineyard where I live.

It has been a gray day all day. So I took advantage of the low level light and set up in the mid point of the day to do this beach painting on Lambert’s Cove.

“Shanty Shadows”, this is a Small painting, 6″x 8″, oil on canvas panel. This painting has SOLD.
I was invited here for a short interview on Plum TV’s Morning show for this Friday. The if was, would I hang outside the Coast Guard Boat house and do a painting in today’s 30 degree weather and breeze, while they stayed warm inside interviewing their other guests. I think I did a good job for my part ! My down jacket and vest certainly helped… Just wish I watched TV so I could see the whole production…
