Autumn Scene

I don't know about you, but I can't wait until the leaves change from green to gold, crimson and orange. The oil painting to the right, Autumn Scene, shows the autumn leaves at their peak color. The color transition has already started here in northern New England, and depending on the weather, the peak probably will occur in 2 or 3 weeks. It will be spectacular. I urge you to visit the area in the fall to see for yourself. Of course, if you just can't travel, you can purchase this painting. Email me for info on Autumn Scene.

Winter Scene

I am enjoying Autumn but suddenly I was thinking of Winter. It is as though this painting just appeared before I realized what I was doing. Sometimes that is the way it happens. Anyway, I think this painting exudes the cold winter weather. Looking at it makes me want to reach for a blanket. Fortunately, winter is some months away. Perhaps I will paint something warm before then.

I Left My Heart There

San Francisco. The city by the bay has several Victorian homes. I call this painting Victorian Row. It is rich in color and almost demands that you look at it. To me, it captures the spirit of my favorite American city. The colors are symbolic of the diversity of the citizens. The many different hues work together and lend character to the painting just as the people do to the city. If you have ever visited there, you know why the city steals your heart.

Still in Vacation Mode

I am still in vacation mode...for good reason because I am still on my long vacation! The weather here has been terrific lately...Warm afternoons and cool mornings and evenings. The lake has been smooth as glass and I have been in my kayak and canoe. There is nothing like being still in the middle of the lake and listening to the loons. I hope you like the watercolor to the right which is simply titled "Canoe." I will be on the lake as soon as I finish posting this. You see, I am still on vacation.
