Tending Bartram's Garden, 18 x 18” oil
I must be on a figure kick, because I started this painting, thinking 'if only there was something pink or red in the composition'. I had a hunch a cardinal would show up, and sure enough, a male flew overhead. Then, to my surprise, a woman from the house shuffled out in a pink blouse! She took the leaf bag with her, but later returned it and I was able to paint them both into the painting.

Here I was attracted to the statuette in the foreground of this lush garden.
Antiquity, 24 x 24” oil
Visiting friends in Williamstown, MA, gave me a chance to paint their yard. We had dinner at this table the night before, and I loved how the tablecloth looked in the yard with Tiger Lilies in the background.
