Dutchess County Fair

This is an 8" x 10" oil painting of The Dutchess County Fair in Rhinebeck, NY.

 I painted this on Sunday morning, the last day of the fair. The weather was perfect!

Berry Pickers

This is a tiny watercolor painting, 2" x 3". Although it is small it has a great presence. As everyone was painting mountains, I heard singing. I turned around and saw the heads of the berry pickers through the bushes. I immediately started painting!

Citrus Squeezer

If these items were crystals I would title the painting Aventurine, amethyst, and citrine. I don't know why I ended up with the crazy color vibrations that I did, perhaps the stones were guiding me. 

This is an 8" x 10" oil painting.

View from Vanderbilt

This view is from Vanderbilt Mansion in Hyde Park, NY.

 I took a break from oil and decided to do a small watercolor.

 I used a 5" x 7" aquaboard for the surface.

Orange Soda

This is an 8" x 10" oil painting. 

It was painted on a hot summer day.

As a child, I remember drinking orange soda at the beach.

Flower Lake

Flower Lake is an 8" x 8" oil painting. It was created during the Adirondacks Plein Air Festival.

 I found myself revisiting this lake quite often.
