Came across this small cottage on a fall day on the New Hampshire Seacoast quite a few years ago. Fog was rolling in from the Atlantic that day, slowly erasing the horizon line. I started this piece shortly thereafter, but having put it aside, recently finished it. “Approaching Fog” 36 x 36
I passed this old farm the other day, on the other side of town, and loved how the barn behind the sugar maple was slowly emerging from behind the leaves, as they fell. There are countless similar scenes up here in New England, where our amazing fall foliage takes center stage each October. “Autumn Road” 48 x 48 o/c.
This farm is about a mile away, and sits against a wall of white pine. On misty days, the moisture in the air creates a soft filter, smoothing the sharp edges of everything, but particularly the backdrop of trees that site further back. Did this piece with that weather in mind…”Mist” 36 x 36
After putting time in on some larger pieces, it’s nice to work on smaller, more portable canvases. Came across this place years ago, in a rural Massachusetts town somewhere west of Boston. Another good example of how old farmers used the natural slope of their land to their advantage. “Slope” 16 x 20 o/c
My neighbor’s farm has new owners, as the woman who has lived there over the past 50 years is moving on, sizing down, and relinquishing the responsibilities of maintaining a large property, along with it’s 5 buildings. The farm’s future is unknown…will it remain a farm, become a neighborhood? We’ll see. It has been the inspiration for many paintings, including this one, derived from a recent walk around the property, with permission granted by the new owners. “Meadowshade” 36 x 36 o/c.
There are moments in a day, in morning and early evening, when the sun beams between and through things, and then hits a target…a tree, building, or meadow. It’s a moment that gets your attention. It’s those moments I love seeing, and painting. “Sunstrike” 48 x 36 o/c.
My neighbor’s barn and farm have been the subject of many paintings. I snapped a photo from the truck, while driving by it one recent the early morning. It was a cool misty September start to the day, with a yellowish sky from the sun rising through the haze, and the shadows cast from the rising sun were long and cool and followed the slope of the meadow. “Morning Shadows” 36 x 24
I read recently an article by a stone wall expert who estimated that if you laid all the stone walls in New England end-to-end, that one single wall could circle the globe four times. Accurate or not, few would doubt the abundance of these man-made archeological entities. Within a square mile of our house alone, there are far more than can be counted. This meadow is down the road, and is one of hundreds that were squared off by stone walls decades, or even centuries ago, when farmers cleared these glacial deposits from their land. “Erratics” 48 x 36
In early Fall, meadow grasses are a blend of their summer cool colors of blue and green, with the warmer, dryer tones of gold, yellow, and red…a transitional period that lasts only a few weeks. “Meadowgrass” 36 x 36 o/c.
