“Life Saver”, this is a small painting, 6″ x 8″, oil on canvas panel. $750.00 USD
Far away from all is this stretch of beautiful beach. It happens to have a bad rip tide along it. Stationed every so often there are orange boxes with rope inside and a life saving ring. These may be tossed out to the hapless swimmer struggling in the rip…
“Wind Swept”, this is a small painting, 6″ x 8″, oil on canvas panel. This painting has SOLD.
More cliff washed out in the past month’s winds and tides. A section slumped half way between the top of the cliff and the beach. I was able to stand on the slump, set my easel up and appreciate the new view…
“Far Meadow”, this is a small painting, 6″ x 8″, oil on canvas panel. $750.00 USD
I almost missed the color changes in these marsh grasses, as they turn from green through orange and gold then brown and silver. Soon enough, beside sky and cloud, the cool blue water will remain the sole enchanting dancer in the land and sea of winterscape…
“Black Point Moon”, this is a small painting, 6″ x 8″, oil on canvas panel. $750.00 USD
A beautiful, warm and sunny afternoon found me out along the paths behind the dunes. The Atlantic Ocean gently rocked the air with sounds of surf and scent of sea. Ducks dropped down into the reeds for an overnight rest. Moon rose from the east gaining its luminous power as the sun slipped ever lower and was gone…
“Fuller Street”, this is a small painting, 6″ x 8″, oil on canvas panel. This painting has SOLD.
I came into town to paint a friend’s garden, but the frost had beaten me to it. The lighthouse was just down the street…
“Watering Can”, this is a small painting, 6″ x 8″, oil on canvas panel. This painting has SOLD.
I accidentally scared a turkey away in a friend’s backyard and discovered this red watering can as I turned to go. I think if it hadn’t been red, I might have let it be and gone about my business…
“Quansoo to Nomans”, this is a small painting, 6″ x 8″, oil on canvas panel. $750.00 USD
A good part of the late afternoon was well spent scouting new locations to paint. I also enjoyed a flock of Yellow-rumped Warblers, up close, who happened to be going my way. When my not-enough-time-left-to-paint alarm went off, I had no choice but to come down to the beach for an obligatory sunset painting…
“Fall on the River”, this is a small painting, 6″ x 8″, oil on canvas panel. $750.00 USD
For decades I have passed this river on my way to Boston and have wished to paint it. When I finished this painting and did a quick global positioning to really see where I had worked. I was totally surprised to find this was the river I always wanted to paint. It is the North River and passes under Route 3 in Hanover and Pembroke, Ma. It looks beautiful from the highway, but even more stupendous from the river bank, especially in fall colors. I was just a half mile east of where I had first seen it so many years earlier…
“Evening Grazing”, this is a small painting, 6″ x 8″, oil on canvas panel. $750.00 USD
Finding sheep in this field is a hit or miss proposition. It is usually a miss. These are the rams of the flock and they are separated now from the ewes across the road. When they next greet the ewes, they will be very excited. In spring we shall find lambs timed to be born toward the end of March, otherwise they would be lambing all winter long. This year I also found a very cooperative sky for my backdrop instead of a bland blue one…
