Subject: Nature

This is my latest painting which may be the general direction (technique as much as the natural subject matter) I'm taking for the next two months towards the show at Gallery 9 in December in Norwood, MA.   14" x 18", oils

Six Pack

This is one of six paintings I'm showing at Gallery 9 in Norwood MA. Ann Gorbett and I will be showing there in December.

Brant Point Lighthouse

Fellow artists, Kim Morin Weineck and Tony Donovan of the Neponset Valley Artists  neponsetvalleyartists.blogspot.com, set out very early in the morning to capture images of the famous Brant Point Lighthouse on Nantucket. I painted this 14" x 11" acrylic on canvas, being inspired by the dramatic colors and the straight-forwardness of the composition. This was perfect for me because I've been trying to push my colors and looking to paint with a more modernist approach. The painting is now hanging at the Artist's Studio and Gallery at Patriot Place. artgalleryatpatriotplace.blogspot.com

Nantucket

I spent three days in Nantucket with my friends the Neponset Valley Artists, by invitation from member Haydi Hurley. Her artist friend, Susan Ottison, let us on her property to paint one day. See her website here http://www.ack.net/Baskets053107.html

This acrylic painting (14"x11") is looking over a marsh towards Monomoy Bay.

Hydrangea Lane

We had a nice week on the cape in New Seabury and stayed at a great house with a long row of Hydrangeas in the front. I did this small painting and gave it to Danielle, one of our partners in crime, as a souvenir. The high noon Summer sun and bright colors were an inspirational moment. Ann also did some very nice paintings of the flowers: anngorbett.blogspot.com

Painting at the Gallery

Working at the Art's Studio and Gallery at Patriot Place this last weekend was fun and productive. These are 6"x6" acrylics on canvas.

Weekend at Pat Place Gallery

It was a fun weekend at Artist's Studio and Gallery at Patriot Place. The visiting artists Dianne Scotti, George Mitchell Jr., and Eli Cedrone were nice company. It was also productive and here's one of two paintings I did, while minding the store, of Bird Park in Walpole Ma.
