"Christmas Snow"

This scene is actually deep in the woods right after a snowstorm. I went out the next morning just as the snow had stopped and the sun came out. The colors were amazing and the sky was such a deep blue. I snapped some reference photos and created this painting from them. I pushed the color as it seemed to need it. Thanks for visiting!

SOLD

 "Midday"

This is a scene right along the Merrimack River in Merrimack, NH. Just past the trees is a steep drop-off. It goes down about 50 feet or more to the river which is relatively wide in this area. Not very deep though. I liked the two 'sister' trees on the edge and the colors of the distant trees with the foreground fall grasses. Nice little scene to paint. The sky was blustery and filled with sun and clouds. I hope I captured the sky convincingly. Thanks for visiting!

SOLD

 "Midafternoon"

This is a pic of a friend of mine who sent me some Fall pictures one year. It was a beautiful scene so I painted it. She has since bought it. The hardest part for me was the figure. I'm more of a landscape painter but I think I did a decent job. Love the color and the composition. Thanks for visiting!

SOLD

"Acadia" 

This is a recognizable place in Acadia National Park. There is such beautiful scenery along the coastline. All natural, all good. There is plenty of light and color in this piece. The dark shadows and bright rocks really show how bright and stark the sunshine was on this beautiful day. Thanks for visiting!

SOLD

"Countryside"

A nice path winds through this field that has opened up in the forest. I like the different colors in the verge and sky. This is a very small piece 4 x 6 and I enjoyed bringing life to a vista on such a small format. Thanks for visiting!

SOLD

"Mem"

Another portrait commission for a client. I feel particularly proud of this one as it seems to have come out so nice. I like all the values on the face and how it all balances out. I feel I caught her personality and expressive smile. Thanks for visiting!

SOLD

"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 #2"

Another in a series I painted on this theme. I attempted to change colors, the sky, shapes, etc. but it still looks very similar to the first one I painted. So the next few I made sure to make them quite different! Having fun! Thanks for visiting!
