The Black Seal

On a day trip along Narraganset Bay in Rhode Island I saw this lobster boat docked with Prudence Island in the back ground and decided to render the sight into a painting.

Fishing the Colorado

Gouache on Multi Media Paper 10.5″ x 13.5″

“Fishing the Colorado” is a recent work painted with gouache medium in my sketch book using a technique similar to watercolor with many thin transparent glazes.

Allegory

11″ x 14″ Watercolor on 110 lb. paper.

“Allegory” is a watercolor painting from a time in my life I was living off the grid in a motor home in Washington State. There is some of the most beautiful country I have ever experienced there which inspired me to paint this homage to Nature.

Lotus Garden

This is a Plein-air painting done in Wickford RI on the way to Point Judith RI. These plants are Huge. Some of the leaves are around three feet in diameter and the flowers can get as large as two feet across.

Morning Coffee

11″ x 14″ Watercolor on 140 lb. paper.

I was planting trees in Oregon and this is a fantasy interpretation of how it felt on a 4:30 AM ride to the job site in the deep woods of the Coastal Range.

The Naked Canvas

Watercolor and Ink on Multi Media Paper

10.5″ x 13.5″

The Naked Canvas is a world of infinite possibilities until making that first mark.

Ingonish

11″ x 14″ Watercolor on 140 lb. paper.

I once took a vacation and drove around the province of Nova Scotia Canada. I photographed, drew and painted wherever I saw interest. It was an incredible time as around every corner was another hallmark moment. This was one my stops. I can still hear the shush of the wave forms receding back over the pebble beach and the hiss of the sea foam.
