This painting was born as I was driving through Hyannisport,and I saw this scene. I have driven the same route at least 100 times, but never saw the statue in a backyard. Ihad my camera, so i took a picture of it from the sidewalk. as luck would have it, the homeowner drove up. I said hello,and asked if she minded me taking pictures of her beautiful statue, and that I was going to paint it.She said she didn't mind and if she liked my painting she would purchase it. she said, that the statue has been there all along, she just cleared the brush, and there it was.
Stay tuned to see if she buys it. SOLD!
I am an artist who lives on Cape Cod and enjoys painting the natural beauty of the Cape around me, whether it's landscapes or seascapes. I have studied with Sam Barber, a well known American Impressionist, Frank Gardner, Mary Giammarino,Donna Dickson, Noah Mendelson, and others.I have studied the art books of Charles Sovek, Kevin Macphearson, and Charles Hawthorne. I hope you enjoy my work.

lot and thought i would do it bigger.

First House 9x12 oil
I did this painting with the pallet knife, from a picture i took last year. I think Julie Heller is going to have a First House show at her gallery in Provincetown. I will be ready.
Sampsons Summer, 9x12 Oil
This was my painting this morning in Cotuit, it was a perfect summer day on the cape.I started early and finished early, framed the painting and brought it over to the show, and I had the good fortune to sell it.
