The additions

Watercolor

Old barn in Granby, MA. Used to fish near this old beauty...all closed up and the property was for sale....

Yellow buildings

This is a watercolor of a building on the campus of Amherst College, Amherst, MA....

I embellished the tone a bit...do not know the history, but my wife and I used to walk the campus when we lived there.

Comments?

Birds in space, too.

Watercolor of two water birds. This was inspired by my parents, as they visit Florida every Febuary.

One of my favorite scenes in a movie also inspired this-"Immortal Beloved".....

Bookends

This is a watercolor and graphite painting I made about 4 years ago. It is a section of the North Adams library in MA.

Oil painting on canvas paper. This is a Lutheran Church in the town of Manitowok, Wisconsin. This image is an attempt to show the contrast between the sky and the building. I have also seen this technique used by a few artists. The two colors are opposites on the color wheel.

Please tell me what you think??

Chillon

Oil of a castle my family visited in Switzerland many years ago. Chillon.

One of the many fond memories I have of that year we lived in Bern.

Maine













THese are a couple oils that I painted early this summer. Scenes from many of the islands in the area.

Hupper Boats

This is a familiar boat that we pass when we leave the island. The sky is very similar.

Door County

Door County, WI...



This is a watercolor painting of a favorite scene of mine when we go for drives in Door County. It is is a town called Ephriam (SP?) . Love the way the trees contrast in the background.

The light

Again, I have tried to create a view if this fantastic, and very famous lighthouse in Maine. This is a view from a boat, my father-in-law takes me out fishing and this is a spot where we usually catch a few mackerel.

De Pere Bridge

This is a local bridge-that was demolished last year. A new bridge with 4 lanes of traffic has taken its place over the Fox River.

I have to say, I like the bridge the day that I saw it....it had allot of character. I have several paintings of this piece of the bridge.

This is oil on canvas board.
