Studio Updates
New: “Morning on the Bluff”

Early morning walks on the beach tend to yield plenty of inspiration. Came across this place years ago, and finally got around to painting it. “Morning on the Bluff” 48 x 48 o/c.
New: “Coral Creek”

New piece based on meandering creek on Cape Cod (of which there are many), with isolated summer cottages on the horizon. “Coral Creek” 36 x 36 o/c
New: “Sea Creek”

New piece inspired by the winding creeks and marshes that flow in and out with the tides of Cape Cod and other coastal regions. This particular scene is based on the Swan River that separates West Dennis from Dennisport. “Sea Creek” 36 x 36 o/c
New: “Shore Road”

With the Fourth of July weekend being one of the busiest times for the beaches of coastal New England, the Cape and Islands, seemed an apt time to finish up this piece, based loosely on a spot up-Island on Martha’s Vineyard. “Shore Road” 24 x 36 o/c.
New: “Waterfront (study)”

This tiny little piece is a study for a larger canvas, or a beautiful setting I came across years ago in Scituate, MA. There was a lot of other stuff in the location that was edited out…boats, other houses, telephone poles, etc. I liked the simplicity of this single house, sitting on a coastal plain
New: “Emerald Bay”

This cottage is one of several identical summer places that sit side-by-side at the top of a bluff on the Outer Cape, overlooking Cape Cod Bay. I’ve painted this small cluster of cottages before, but focused on just one for this piece. The elevated location of the house provides only a glimpse of the water
New: “Amberfield (study)”

Small piece done as a composition an color study for larger canvas. Based on an old barn in Maine, this small canvas serves as a quick way to experiment with color. “Amberfield” 10 x 10
New: “Split Rail”

New piece based on a location in Vermont (can’t remember where) I came across recently. Hard to say whether old farm fences were built to keep things in, or keep things out. “Split Rail” 40 x 30 o/c
New: “Wild Apple”

Our property, like many around us, contains apple trees that were not planted as an orchard, but rather popped up naturally over the decades. You see them in many meadows and fields in rural areas. This one, living on a meadow in a farm in the Berkshires of Massachusetts, ermerged as the subject of this
New: “Fenceposts”

Painted this location before, a few times, and in each the fenceposts were a part of the composition. I included them again, and elevated their presence by naming the piece in their honor. “Fenceposts” 33 x 24 o/c.
