West River, keeping it simple
Grey Skies, Saturday Morning
Oil on canvas, 11×14 inches. Thanks to Tish for getting me out to Spy Pond in Arlington, after years of driving by, I finally had an opportunity to paint. Very family friendly but felt like out in nature for this urbanite. The morning included very light sprinkles of rain.
A few postcards from a rooftop
Postcards – my code word for quick, small, landscape studies – if they don’t bring a smile to my lips, I wipe the canvas down. Here is the Tobin Bridge and the St. Francis spire.
And when the weather finally turns to Spring, I’m back outside.
Found this in the drafts folder – from April 16, 2016. Gorgeous day in Boston – after last weeks late snow, the magnolias are mostly very sad but the cherry blossoms are bursting out. I used the water miscible paints on this.
Fresh Air
A selection of my plein air landscapes are now hanging at the St. Botolph Club until June 10. The paintings look terrific in this space. Thanks so much to Michael Price, Carol Hartman and George Lynde of the Art Committee. Visits for nonmembers may be arranged for Wednesday afternoons.
Coming in May . . .
I’m thrilled to let you know that my plein air paintings will be shown in Boston at the St. Botolph Club on Commonwealth Ave. Details to come.
