Plum Island: Waiting for Wildlife


Plum Island #1: Waiting for Wildlife
12x12
Oil on Cradled Panel
$325

Plum Island is a wonderful National Wildlife Refuge in Newburyport, MA. Click the link for some beautiful photos of it. I go there many times - to paint, to photoghaph the beauty, to walk the beach, to think, and just to eat my lunch.

Matted "Orange Horizon"

Orange Horizon
10x10
oil on prepared paper
$295

This piece was done at Goose Rocks Beach in Kennebunkport right after "First Light" but the differences surprised me: the blue settled into the sky more lightly and a slight cloud was overhead. The sea also picked up a sense of lightness. These clear sky mornings are quite different than the ones with all the cloud drama, and quite peaceful. Looks like a beautiful day ahead!

"Watching the Sea"

Watching the Sea
10x10
oil on paper
$285

I'm still in Stonington, Maine with this painting. This time I am looking in the opposite direction from yesterday's painting. I felt that the window in the wal was almost alive, looking out to sea, waiting for a far away loved one.

Stonington Sunlight

Stonington Sunlight
10x10
Oil on prepared paper
$295

Some of the best painting opportunities are found in the town of Stonington, Maine. It's enough off the beaten path to avoid huge crowds, and the hills surrounding the harbor make dramatic compositions. I painted this right off the porch I was staying in. I love painting on porches!
