Another view of the Little Pamet River

This is a spot I've painted many times, over the 20+ years I've been spending time in Truro, MA — way out near the tip of Cape Cod. It's peaceful here, and though the poison ivy and deer tick population are somewhat of a deterrent to painting on-site, I can't resist.

The Chop Shop

My studio has become a chop shop of sorts lately. Several paintings, old and new, including this one, have found themselves a few sizes smaller. I think in each case it's an improvement, and possibly a step toward a better composition next time.
