On Native Land

"On Native Land"
20x20
Unframed
Oil on Canvas
$675

At Gay Head Lighthouse in Martha's Vineyard the view is just amazing. An area with shops and snack bars has been built near the esteemed view, and bus after bus come by to see the lighthouse above the spectacular clay cliffs. But across from it is a view just as amazing near the Native American Museum, and I set up there to paint, showing the huge sky and the crashing surf far below. I had very few people come by though I was out in the open. Amazing what moving a bit beyond will get you in beauty.

Matted "Sunlit Winter Day"

Sunlit Winter Day
10x14
Watercolor
$190

Some winter days are so beautiful, especially when you have been cooped up in the house for a while. And, sometimes, when you get to walk down the long boardwalk to the beach at Plum Island in the Parker River Wildlife Preserve, you see combinations of sunlight trees, sand dunes and grasses that are just lovely. This was one of those days. This lovely place is near Newburyport, MA, another favorite spot, and I am 25 minutes from each of them. Very lucky!
