Oil Paintings

The Three Witnesses

The 3 Witnesses

My most recent oil painting depicting three innocent cows resting in a New England field. They are curious to see who is watching them….Is it you?


The bird feeders

A plein-air oil painting of a lake house back yard bird feeders and surroundings done quickly using thin glazes of oil paints


Lettuce

A plein-air oil painting of lettuce growing in my garden painted with thin glazes of oil paint


This is the Plein-Air set up I used while working in my back yard on the “Garden Wall” painting.


The Garden wall

A plein-air oil painting of my garden wall painted with thin glazes of oil paint

I built the wall from construction rubble and especially liked the glass brick I found


Kitchen Table

I loved how all of these colors were conversing with each other while I was starting to fix supper and it became inspiration to put into paint.


A Conversation interrupted

Displaying a dinning room scene with abandoned place sets and unfinished food and drink. Waiting for the partakers to return poses the questions, “Who was here?”, “Where did they go?”, “What were they talking about?” and “Why did they leave?”….Will we ever know?


love of the vine

I purchased a Candelabra and Carafe from a thrift store thinking “It would be nice to do a painting of this”


Desert Trail

This painting is from a photograph taken while driving from Oatman, Arizona to Kingman, Arizona along Rt. 66 near Sitgreaves pass looking East


Desert Bee Hive

On a day hike near the Colorado River in Arizona I came across this cliff face with a striking cave. On the cliff face adjoining to the right of the cave was a small opening with a thriving hive of wild honey bees.


Low Tide

Oil Painting of the Main State coastline at low tide with pools and seaweed visible among the rocks.

My challenge was to illustrate the appearance of rocks viewed through the reflective surface of the water
