Autumn in New Hampshire

"Amish Barn Builders", Watercolor, 27 x 36, $350

Some years ago, I attended an Amish barn raising in Ohio. Knowing the reluctance of the Amish to being photographed, I took some discreet long-distance shots with a telephoto lens. This painting shows the two chief supervisors conferring under a tree.

   
Autumn in New Hampshire

"Gate 23", Watercolor, 28 x 36, $350

I always carry a sketchbook when travelling and like to capture people in their typical poses while waiting for their flights. This painting is a composite of several sketches from different airport settings.

   
New England Autumn

"The Businessman's Flight", Watercolor, 29 x 36, $375

This painting is a spoof on the uniformity of businessmen. I chose to do it in monochrome just to reinforce the point. There is one bit of color, representing the flight attendant.

Fall Serenity

"The Great Wall"

This is a tough climb! Steeper than it looks over uneven stones, and a handrail that is set too low for convenience. But a spectacular scene nonetheless.

   
Bridge in Provence

Bridges, however small, are one of my passions. This stone arch was found in Seao, Provence, September, 2001

Guatemala, Street Scene

"Encompassing Florida", Watercolor, 16 x 20, $175

I was trying to show here that it is possible to draw a reasonably good map

of Florida using nothing but a compass! I have included all the coordinates

and radii, if you would like to try it.

 
How to Repair a Gardenia

“How to Repair a Gardenia”, Watercolor, 20 x 26, $500

I know—it’s a wacky title. I was looking for something to paint one day and decided to pick a gardenia and place it in the vise on my work bench. I liked the contrast of the softness of the flower against the hardness of all the tools. This painting was featured in a calendar published by the Gainesville Fine Arts Association in 1987.

 
On the Bosporus

“On the Bosphorus” , Watercolor, 20 x 26, $300

On a business trip to Istanbul in 1995, I sketched this mosque on the Bosphorus, then did the painting from the sketch a few years later.

Tucson Plaza

“Tucson Plaza”, Watercolor, 27 x 35, $350

I sketched this scene in Tucson, Arizona, then painted it later. The sketches you make become a valuable resource for later paintings, as well as a good record of your travels.

The painting of this medieval bridge was made from a sketch I made in Llangollen, Wales
