Otter Cliffs, Acadia National Park, Maine

This started out as a plein air painting in the Acadia National Park in Maine, 
and then I worked on it in the studio.  
This is Otter Cliffs, one of the 8 most beautiful spots in the park.  
The rocks along this area are a definite orange color, like the ones in Gloucester MA.  
Here is a link to see photos of this area of the park in case you haven't been there: https://www.escapecampervans.com/blog/8-cant-miss-stops-in-acadia-national-park/

Actual Photo of that area taken from a different spot as my painting.

Ominous Sky at Halloween

This is a plein air painting in one afternoon and as sunset approached the mood changed to dramatic and ominous and I decided to 'get' it since it reminded me of the season of Halloween and I enjoyed going with the flow.

Boats and House on the River



I painted two paintings in plein air of the red boat and the white house 
on the river that goes to the sea.

Pears with Silver background

FUN - This contemporary modern still-life painting of two pears is colorful and has a SILVER background. Notice the difference (how it glows) in the second photo on my DPW page with the link to buy. I think it's really neat! I also love the colors and the adorable glass with the flower in it! And I love orange, so it's on an orange table :)

Two Plein Air Paintings


Both are plein air paintings.
The first one was in upper state NY near the finger lakes on a workshop with Lori Putnum a few years ago.  The second one was at the Greenbelt in Ipswich a few years ago.
I was going to go in and paint more on them, but decided not to.  Once you start to 'fix' anything on a plein air painting, well me anyway, you get carried away and the beauty of the plein air sketch is lost.    So they are now offered on the DPW site if anyone is interested.
