"Morning Rhythm"


12" x 12" x 1.5", oil on gallery-wrapped canvas. Contact me for pricing*

*Currently on display at Beauty Gallery in Newtown Square, PA.

I got up before sunrise to capture the moment of daybreak at Rehoboth Beach, DE last September. The beach was quiet and empty except for this lone fisherman. I took a quick photo as he was casting and it turned out to be a great subject for a painting.

"Autumnal Farm"


6" x 8", oil  on canvas panel. $150.

October afternoon, full of warm sunshine reflecting off the metal roof of an old barn in the countryside near my home. This is based on a reference photo I took out the window of my car while sitting at a traffic light. I've been wanting to paint this barn scene for years...glad I finally got around to it.

"Valley Forge Cabins"


6" x 6", oil on masonite. $125.

Two log cabins (replicas) at Valley Forge National Historic Park...not far from where I live. I'm about to do a large 30" x 40" version of this scene for a commission.

"Springtime Abundance"


6" x 8", oil on canvas panel. $150.

After painting all the Iris leaves, with all the varying angles and color shades, I now have a new respect for Van Gogh! This took way longer than I thought it would but I am happy that I stuck it out. The surface of the painting has a lot of texture...hard to capture in a photo.

"Tied Cobs"


6" x 8", oil on canvas panel. $150.

Couldn't resist that title! This is based on a reference photo I took at my local farmer's market about a month ago. I abstracted the background and changed the basket, but otherwise it's pretty similar to the photo. I love the way the background color harmonizes with the yellows. So glad I changed that.

"Strouds Nature Preserve"


6" x 8", oil on canvas panel. $125.

This place is all about hills and trees. I definitely need to come back here and do some plein air painting with my new outdoor portable easel! I meant to get out there within the last week or so to catch the peak of the Fall foliage...maybe this week :-)

"Heaven and Earth"


6" x 8", oil on board. $125.

My initial attraction to this scene was the cumulus clouds. This little painting was an exercise to practice painting clouds. It's based on some reference photos I took while hiking at Strouds Nature Preserve in West Chester, PA.
