I painted this landscape at the Daniel Boone Homestead. I wanted to have a more panoramic feel to express the incredible space. So I decided to try out a triptych approach. Still really enjoy painting on panels more so than canvas.

Fields of Gold
I painted this landscape at the Daniel Boone Homestead. I wanted to have a more panoramic feel to express the incredible space. So I decided to try out a triptych approach. Still really enjoy painting on panels more so than canvas.
Rocky Beach
I painted this right on the beach in Cape Henlopen Park in Delaware. It was the perfect day for painting with a nice breeze coming off the ocean. I discovered I really like painting on masonite. It has no "give" like stretched canvas and I can get more detailed without competing with the texture that canvas has.
Pilot's Point
7x20 acrylic on panel
Painted at Pilot's Point in Cape Henlopen Park in Delaware. This is the most beautiful location in the whole park. I just loved the long bluish shadows cast by the tall grass and fence. It was so windy though the sand actually mixed with my paint.
Something's in the Air
This is Boyertown's foundry located right next door to the YMCA. I painted this from several photos that I took before going to work at about 7AM just as the sun was rising. I couldn't help but think about Monet and his interests in the color of steam and how the lighting effects it.
Hartman's Farm, Route 562
A beautiful farm I drive past on my way to the GoggleWorks on Route 562 in Oley. I love the vast sky and space. SOLD
Blue View
I painted this outside the post office in Boyertown during the global paint-out.
Pleasant Pastures, For Now
I painted this on Longacre's Farm along Route 100. A very warm day, couldn't get the cows out from the trees. It was an unexpected bonus to catch the development construction in the background.
