Live ShotAcrylic on Gallery Wrapped Canvas
18" x 36"
Private Collection
Our youngest daughter, Meg, is a news videographer for WPTZ, an NBC affiliate in Plattsburg, New York. I had the luxury of working on this portrait of her while listening to some great live music from our neighbor, Sam. He was home recently to work on a recording with some of his band mates. Sam and my two daughters grew up together in this neighborhood. They don't get the chance to see each other often any more, so it was fun for me to connect them for a bit through his music and my paintbrush. It sure brought back a ton of good memories...

A year or so ago I took my first ride on a four wheeler. It was an experience that changed my view of such vehicles. As we bumped along deep into the woods, I was able to see first hand why many people find this pastime so appealing. I saw surrounding areas that I have never taken notice of before as we made our way along narrow, well disguised trails. As always, I had my camera on hand. I worked from a series of photos to recreate the day here.

This piece was painted from a series of reference photos taken on a drive with my daughter, Meg. We were traveling up through the islands in Vermont, and were lucky enough to have tracked this beautiful sunset from its beginning. We pulled off to the side of the road for this final glimpse.

In an effort to look at something other than the mountains of snow that remain in our yard, I've decided it's time to fill my easel with thoughts of warmer temperatures. This is a view of Crystal Lake in Gilmanton Iron Works, NH. Our family camp is to the right on the distant shore.

SOLD
I was painting in my studio a few weeks back when I happened to glance over and catch this view from my window. I immediately moved from my easel to the desk just under the window in order to capture the scene. Within minutes after I finished, the moon disappeared behind the clouds, and it began to snow...again.

A NaturalAcrylic on Gallery Wrapped Canvas
15" x 45"
Private Collection
Interestingly enough, this painting began as a landscape. Within several minutes of painting time, however, I knew it was not meant to be. I quickly grabbed a damp cloth and wiped it down leaving a soft blue wash. Tacked up on my studio wall was a photo I had snapped of our oldest daughter, Erin, during one of her recent performances. Using that for reference, I knew as soon as I resumed painting that I had found the subject meant for this canvas.

This is a tissue paper collage I had started years ago. I came across it recently and decided to just cut loose and have fun with it. I didn't have any set plans when I began adding layers of acrylic paint and colored pencil. My intent was to just let things unfold as I went along, and to play a bit...which I did!

Snow for SadieAcrylic on paper

Private Collection
Recently, I was the very lucky recipient of a wonderfully handcrafted 'snow' sculpture from a young artist friend of mine. It holds a place of honor in my studio where, despite the heat, it has yet to melt! As a thank-you, I offered my snow person interpretation in return.

These barns are among many nestled in on the land belonging to my brother and sister-in-law's family in Alstead, NH. The property, once known as the Vilas Estate, is beautifully maintained making it a great source for artistic inspiration. Many of the upcoming landscape paintings will be of views captured there on a recent visit.

This small abandoned building sits up the road from where we live. I've always wondered about the history of it, as well as the people who once made it their home so long ago. To me, even in its current state of disrepair, it still has a quaintness to it.

BrothersAcrylic on Canson Montval Acrylic Paper
11" x14"
Private Collection
This portrait of my two brothers, Jim and Dan, was painted from a series of photos taken at our family camp this past summer. The camp was built for fishing purposes by our great-grandfather and several of his friends in 1895, and has been passed down through the generations of our family. My brothers and I are its current caretakers. As kids, we spent hours playing on and jumping off that big rock.

Christmas WishAcrylic and Oil Pastel on Acrylic Paper
14" x 11"
Private Collection
In the evening on the first Sunday in December, there's a small gathering in the center of our village for the annual tree lighting ceremony and caroling, followed by hot chocolate and cookies at the Academy just a short walk away. It's a tradition that was in place long before we moved into the village some 28 years ago, and with the tree just on the other side of the road from our home, we've yet to miss this event. This year, I snapped a few photos which resulted in this painting of our daughter and son-in-law whose wish did come true. On December 21, 2007 they became first time home owners.
Congratulations Erin and Steve!

The gift giving begins!
Several of the postings appearing over the next week or so, beginning with this one, will be paintings that made their way under the Christmas trees of family members and friends. In all of the pre-holiday hustle and bustle, however, I forgot to scan a few of the pieces first (sorry Meg), so not all of the gifts will be posted here.

TeamworkAcrylic on Canson Montval Acrylic Paper
10" x 7"
Commission
This piece of art was also commissioned by Lori Roe, Principal of the newly opened Durand-Eastman Intermediate School in Rochester, NY. After seeing Book Buddies ( previous post), Lori and her staff decided they would like a companion piece to hang along with it in their school's front office. For this second piece, Lori asked that a teacher be included. My daughter, Erin, who owns Lyrics Music Studio where she also teaches voice (located in E. Rochester, NH, ironically enough!), served as my model for the teacher. That made this piece particularly fun to work on. My challenge was to make both pieces similar in style, but not repetitive in content or composition. Using a similar color palette helped to unify the two pieces. Because both pieces are relatively small, I chose to simplify the backgrounds in order to keep the focus on the subjects in each painting.

Book BuddiesAcrylic on Canson Montval Acrylic Paper
10" x 7"
Commission
This piece of art was commissioned by Lori Roe, Principal of the newly opened Durand-Eastman Intermediate School in Rochester, NY. Her request was for a small piece of art to hang in the front office that would represent students working or playing together in some way. Since reading is both pleasurable, and a means of accomplishing school work, it seemed to be the perfect choice...hence, Book Buddies.

I was intrigued with the colors in a photo taken from the deck of our house after our first big snowstorm on December 3, 2007. Although this painting doesn't match the treeline in our yard, the colors were what I was interested in working with. I loved the deep greens set against the pinks and purples of the bare trees in the background.

I happened across this sunset as I was driving home from work on route 202 one evening in early November. Thankfully, I had my camera with me. It gave me a good reason to pull off into a vacant lot and enjoy the show.
