"Souhegan River"


This is a section of the Souhegan River in Wilton, NH. It winds along the road along Route 31 among other places. I pulled off into a small rest area and walked through a small patch of woods to set up my easel and sketch the scene. I reworked it in the studio and present the finished piece here. I really like the light and the view. It was such a beautiful place. Thanks for visiting!

"Under the Tree"



A nice autumn scene where you can relax and enjoy the quiet of the country. I pushed the color for more impact and to indicate the fall season more. It's a simple piece with a simple beauty. Thanks for visiting!

"Another Place in Time"



I painted this on a chilly morning in May with bright sunshine and a cool breeze. On the property is a nice old house and a pond next to that. A nice, quaint place. I simplified the scene and added some color to make it more interesting. The barn was my focal point from the beginning. Thanks for visiting!

"Reflections #3"


This is the next one in the pond series. I went with a more yellow/violet them here and it looks like it works out. The water is a little dark but I wanted more mystery in the painting. I really like the tree on the right and how it came out. Sometimes busy areas are hard to work out. Painted alla prima like all the others. Thanks for visiting!

"Follow The Path"




This area is along the Merrimack River in Bedford, NH. It's known as the Heritage Trail - a beautiful place. I originally started this plein air and then it sat around in the studio for a long time (happens to a lot of my paintings!). I finally finished it up - I warmed up the colors and brightened it up a bit. Thanks for visiting!

"At the Creek"




This little stream runs under a small bridge in a rural area in Landgrove, VT. Just over the bridge is a huge expanse of open farmland and fields. It was a beautiful day and I just stumbled into this bucolic area. I had to climb down to get under the bridge to take this shot. I just love the light and the colors. Thanks for visiting!
