Moody Marsh

"Moody Marsh", oil on panel, 8 x 8

I have done several paintings of the marshes around the Thimble Islands in Connecticut.  There are so many design possibilities with marshes because of the serpentine nature of the water winding its way through the islands.  I have revisited this particular design a few times and am still refining it.   I wanted to avoid leading the near edge of the river directly into the corner but I think I created a perspective problem.  I will adjust it when it is dry.

Marsh and Dunes

"Provincetown Dunes",  6 x 6, oil on panel

I have been revisiting my Cape Cod pictures.  They remind me of summer.  The small paintings continue . . .

"Marsh at Twilight,"  6 x 6, oil on panel

Fall Show at Sorelle Gallery

"Early September Marsh", oil on linen, 24 x 24

This painting will be exhibited at the Sorelle Gallery's "Reveal Fall" show starting Friday, September 28th.  The show runs through October 11th so please stop by if you are in the Albany area.  This painting has been on and off my easel for a long time.  I had done several studies in pastel before starting the oil version.  I finally resolved some of the issues that had been nagging me and I am happy with it now.  This piece is quite large for me and I really enjoyed painting larger.  Hopefully more to follow.
