The Orange Umbrella-sold

Oil on canvas, 16" x 20"
This is a larger version of a painting I did a while back. It's a picture of the JRS Gallery on Wickendon St. in Providence, which just closed because the owner is now retired.

I'm pleased to announce that I have joined Daily Paintworks, a wonderful group of artists. Check it out!

Hints of lemon- sold

Oil on canvas, 12" x 16"
The roses got pretty beat up by all of the rain we had lately, but I did manage to get one painting done of them. After doing a red wine painting a few weeks back, I had to do a white.

In the shade


Oil on canvas, 11" x 14"
Ann and I posed for each other the other day. She put me under a rose arbor, in the sun, a pretty spot but after half an hour I felt like a chicken in a broiler. I put her in the shade, and did this in about an hour. It was interesting to paint pale skin in the shade- it had to look cool and light, but at the same time, warmer and darker than her skirt. I'm fairly happy with the result, although it would have been nice to have another hour to work on it.

My plein air class at the Portsmouth Arts Guild starts next week, and there's still room if you're interested!

Coffee and dessert


Oil on canvas, 11" x 14"
I'll be teaching a plein air class in beautiful Bristol RI for the Portsmouth Art Guild starting in 2 weeks. The class will meet on Thursday mornings. Plenty of room left in the class if you want to sign up! Last year we had a really good time with great weather.
