Paintings

While I can be found working in a sketchbook most days, every now and then I get out the good paper, set up my easel, and create something wall-worthy. Here is a selection of recent work.

New England Landscapes

I find most of my inspiration from the New England landscape, both cityscapes and rural views. I think I could find something exciting to paint every day for the rest of my life without ever leaving Massachusetts. From Cape Code to the Berkshires or right outside in my own backyard, there is always something that catches my imagination.

Seashells

After beach combing on a recent trip to Cape Cod, I came home with an assortment of shells. On days when it's impractical to get outside, I can still paint from life. Each shell is unique and offers new inspiration and also new painting challenges.
