Summer dalliance

Summer dalliance
Oil on canvas
8"x8"

For me, this past weekend marked the beginning of summer here in Vermont and what better way to celebrate than a country scene. The paint is thin but manages, I hope, to convey the feel of a gentle summer breeze while walking on a country road.

$225 plus $15 shipping and handling

Martha's Vineyard inlet

Oil on panel
6"x10"
SOLD

When I started this painting I wanted to keep it loose and simple but soon I was fussing with it, trying to refine it without making it too precious. A tough act to pull off.

L.I. farm (4)

L.I. farm (4)
Oil on panel
12"x24"x2"

I did this piece for an upcoming group show in June. It's a subject I've done a few times before but with a new horizontal format. My goal was to stay loose and bold while including descriptive information.

Inquire about price and availability.

Shelburne Farms, early spring

Shelburne Farms, early spring
Oil on canvas
12"x24"
SOLD

This was a commissioned piece that I did of Shelburne Farms. Knowing the owner's preference for muted colors, I concentrated on the sweep of the fields and the hazy light of morning. I'm just starting to work in larger sizes and have enjoyed the challenge.

Martha's Vineyard marsh study

Oil on panel
7"x10"
SOLD

I liked this painting when I posted it back in August but when I saw it again this week with fresh eyes I decided to tweak the background area. The changes are subtle but you can compare this revised version to the original one here.
