Walking in the Woods, Part 3

This is is far as I've gotten with this series. There will be more! December has historically been a slow month in the studio due to holidays and birthdays.

Walking in the Woods

I've been working on a series of 8 x 10 oils on prepared paper. Mainly these small works are from recent walks in or near wooded areas. Fall weather changes the look of the wooded landscape every day, as wind, rain and animals  do their Fall thing. Here's one from the series.

More Rocky Shores

This rocky view on the coast of Rhode Island continues to fascinate, even as the house and grounds endure more and more battering from salt and wind. Apparently, things will get worse (better, if you love a wild ocean). I look forward to late Fall's display but in the meantime, here's one from a few weeks ago.

Rocky Shores

As summer in New England begins its exit, there's even more incentive to spend time at the ocean's edge. Visiting a friend's seaside cottage gave me the opportunity to endlessly gaze at the waves crashing against the rocks.

Here is one in a series.

From a Distant Fire

On a recent summer evening, the sky took on an eerie red tone — 

smoke from this year's California wildfires. 

Amazing to think how far-reaching the effects of those fires are, in this case 3,000 miles.

A Massachusetts Marsh

A few weeks ago I visited the Salisbury Beach State Reservation. Though the beach is wonderful and I have a parking pass, my choice of things to observe included a marshy area unpopulated by any humans (plenty of ticks though). This may or may not be quite finished. Enjoy!

River in the Desert

I've visited the Salt River in Arizona a few times, with my sister. 

I love the beauty of the desert and the things that grow there. Here's a new one from a family trip two years ago.

On the Water Again

Spring is here and I am making plans to visit several different bodies of water this Summer.  Here's a painting from last summer, when we (safely) tooled around Newport Harbor with friends.
