“The Great Marshes”
A 32” x 48” oil painting on linen of the Great Salt Marshes in Barnstable secured in a hand carved 22kt gold leaf frame.
Hanging in the Adams House in The Hague, The Great Marshes is on loan to the U.S. Ambassador to the Kingdom of the Netherlands, Joseph Popolo through the U.S. Department of State’s Art in Embassies program.
Joe and his wife Chris have curated a very nice selection of artwork reflecting their interest in artists from Texas and Cape Cod as expressed in The Hague Publication 2026. I couldn’t be happier with the placement of the painting, featured in the dining room, it gets the appreciation it so richly deserves.
Just for the sheer pleasure of this experience, I’d love to have every visitor to the Adams House take a picture with the painting and tag me in it.

“Dancing with the Wind”
A 24” x 36” oil painting on linen from Dowses Beach looking back across East Bay into the afternoon sun.
It was the bright contrasting tonal values of warm over cool and the lone sailboat, at its mooring, moving around in the heavy wind as a weather system cleared, that sparked my interest in painting this scene. This is an iconic New England coastal landscape in the unique transitional space between Spring and Summer. In early June the water is still cool, with jewel like clarity, but the warmth of the sun and blooming beach roses promise much warmer days are just around the corner.

All shoveled out and powered up. The Christmas lights are buried, those will not be coming down until there’s considerably more melting.

On the verge of 2026, I would like to thank everyone that made this year and the move to 32A Wianno Avenue a successful one.
Also, a special thank you to Virginia Bays at Art and Color 365 for the featured article in their Winter 2025 vol. 3 no. 1 magazine pages 6- 9. Virginia’s warmth and friendly demeanor made our conversation effortless. The magazine is produced on a substantial stock. It’s elegant, weighty and the color rendering is exceptionally impressive.

Here’s to a Happy and Healthy New Year!

“CONQUER THE REEDS”
A 12”x 16” oil painting on linen of a Red-winged Blackbird singing atop a cattail along a tidal river.
Seems fitting to share a painting of a bird who is a harbinger of Spring on the final day of the season. Summer begins tomorrow.

Plein Aire painting from the car yesterday afternoon, the wind was wild.
Utilized the oversized Open Box M panel holder, it has a larger mixing area, a great feature, but is rather uncomfortable between my chest and the steering wheel. No room for palette knife mixing so the brushes took a beating.

A very nice inclusion in the November/December issue of Artists Magazine by Daniel Grant titled “A WALK ON THE Wild(life) Side”. Featuring my 2007 Massachusetts Waterfowl Stamp painting of a Goldeneye decoy and “Emerald’s Shadow” - Mallard Drake.
Massachusetts Waterfowl stamps were always unique when compared with other State contests, the design had to feature a decoy by deceased Massachusetts decoy maker

It’s been a long time since I painted out West. I think the last time was the trip to in the Winter of 2011 inspired by a photograph in a William Bradford book. I’ll share my experience in a couple of posts.
Flying in at the end of the day was pretty cool, the aircraft had to sweep around a storm, so the timing was perfect for dropping down through the setting sun cloud structure. iPhones simply do not do the tarmac view justice and coming from the East Coast where there is an over abundance of ambient light illuminating the night sky to the blackness of Wyoming was shocking.
This was my first trip to , although I had painted in multiple times something always interfered with getting to the Tetons. Luckily, my sister, joined me on the adventure, adding a very special and fun element. It was also helpful to have a second pair of eyes when looking for wildlife and she made it much easier for me to focus on painting in the field. While we didn’t see any bears, we did encounter a lot of fresh sign in the willows along the Snake River. Prompting us to choose a very visible ridge line above Willow Flats looking into the sun at Mount Moran for the first painting.
September sunlight is my favorite because I believe it’s the best light for en . Special light is always on my mind when considering a composition and Willow Flats did not disappoint. As the sun moved across the sky a sliver of lemon yellow popped off Jackson Lake, backlighting the willows and creating a dramatic transition of color. I found myself tempted to “chase the light”, it was so rich my eyes could taste it.
