Peaches on Blue Glass - SOLD
Peaches on Blue Glass
Oil on Canvas board, 9" x 12"
Sold at $60.00 plus shipping.
I had a request for Christmas for a peaches-painting, and checked a few grocery stores, no peaches. Out of season. But I had taken some photos of gorgeous peaches in a large blue plate, and printed them out to paint from. I like the sun-drenched effect here. Thanks for looking.

Goldens in Blue Bowl
Oil on Canvas board, 8" x 8"
Sold at $40.00 plus shipping.
It's rainy and dark here in Massachusetts today, a good day for a small painting with bright colors. And I wanted to paint these Golden Delicious apples once more before giving them to the kids to eat up. Thanks for looking.

Path at Barre Falls Dam - NA
Path to Barre Falls Dam
Oil on Canvas board, 12" x 12"
Not Available.
I wanted to try a high key (mostly light in value) study, and had this photo from Barre Falls Dam wanderings a couple of weeks back. I guess I am drawn to paths, since I'm always taking pictures of them, and wind up painting a lot of them. This was successful as a high key study, I think, and appealing as well. Thanks for looking.

Lake Needwood in Gray - SOLD
Lake Needwood in Gray
9" x 12", Oil on Canvas board
SOLD at $20.00 plus shipping.
Having discovered this new technique for doing water, I wanted to play with it. I have some nice photos from Lake Needwood (Montgomery County, Maryland) still, so I got one out and had some fun. (The spot here is a lens reflection, not in the painting.) Thanks for looking.

Edgy Peppers - SOLD
Edgy Peppers
10" x 10", Oil on Canvas board
SOLD.
I miss daylight. Come 4:00 in the afternoon, the sky is already getting darker. I can see that I'm going to have to set up some kind of an indoor photo shooting box or something. Taking photos inside just doesn't work with all the cross lighting. Needs some research. Thanks for looking.
