What's your favorite color? That's where I'd like for my art to connect with you and your decor.
More than just filling an empty place on your wall, I want to help you create a positive experience for everyone who enters your personal space. And I want to help you relax and enjoy your environment. That's what my art is all about.
So let me help you "get personal" with a colorful painting or print today!
_Acrylic Paintings: Colorful acrylic paintings on canvas are my primary medium. Each painting is finished with an acrylic varnish to seal the surface for durability and ease of cleaning. Many paintings are done on gallery wrap canvases which are up to three inches deep, with the image painted around the edges.
Watercolor Paintings: My secondary product is watercolor paintings on high quality archival papers.
Pen & Ink Drawings: Many subjects, such as house portraits, lend themselves well to this high contrast medium with its emphasis on detail and shading.
COMMISSIONS:
I am available to do a painting or drawing of your house, cottage, business place, boat, or other subject on commission. Prices vary with size, being based on the formula of $1.00 per square inch. Lead time for completing commissions is generally 90 to 120 days. Payments are normally made one-half down at time of contract, and one-half upon completion of paintng. Shipping is extra and based on the packaging required and distance shipped. To arrange for a commission, please email me.

Osprey Nest
"Osprey Nest" is an acrylic painting on gallery wrap canvas capturing the play of light and shadows on a channel marker where a Sea Hawk (Osprey) has built a nest. The use of color brings depth and excitement to a very common scene in coastal waters.
"Seabreeze" is an acrylic painting on gallery wrap canvas featuring a colorful beach umbrella and beach towel with the sense of an inviting breeze blowing in off the sea.
Another in my series of acrylic paintings on canvas applying colorful interpretation to old river pilings. Size: 8"x24" canvas.

"UP AGAINST THE WALL": Old barrels stacked up against the wall of shed create the subject for this colorful acrylic painting.
A collection of rental boats at a floating dock on a creek in Maine presented an opportunity to turn up some color and transform an ordinary scene into a vibrant one. "Colorful Collection" is an acrylic on gallery wrap canvas, 24"x30"--a great addition to your nautical decor, or to simply brighten up a room.
Lobster floats hanging on a cedar shake wall in New England make a great study for a colorful painting!
