Ocean to the Right #431























Newfoundland to the left. I met the sweetest, largest (145lbs) dog today while painting. Brie is jealous, nothing gets by her. She never gets to go on location.

The Sidewalk Sale continues tomorrow, Saturday. I'll be doing a demo at noon AND all my paintings are 20% off for this event.

Snoopy #429























I figured out why I like this spot to paint. The little red house totally looks like Snoopy's dog house.

Lookout #428























I was sitting around, eating these blueberries, thinking what, do tell, should I paint.

Oh, right.

Other News: I'm preparing for the Sidewalk Sale which is THIS Thursday, Friday and Saturday at White Magdelena in Hingham Square. I'm sorting through my year of 6x6" panels and bringing a bunch down for sale.

More News Still: I'll also be doing a demo on Saturday at White Magdelena at noon.

The Little One & The Other One #427 & 427.5























SOLD
I did two paintings today, The Little One, above is 6x6" and The Other One, below is 12x12" -

Other News: Brie is sulking. I took her on and errand to the bank, and even though she sat very, very still, like a seemingly well mannered dog, she did not earn a treat - I usually have a spare in my pocket for such emergencies, life is too short for needless disappointment, but I forgot.

Below, 12x12" available at White Magdelena, 781-749-0048

And Then I Went Inside #425























SOLD
Okay, so maybe all these days in a row outside, just calls for a still life of nice, safe vessels and one non-changing light source. I started outside today and proudly killed two paintings, just couldn't get in a groove - but I met some nice people outside, so all was not lost. And then came home and set out the blues. . . when in doubt, paint things that are blue (oh and green).

Bird's Eye View #424

























Despite two GPS thingys, an old friend I grew up with happened to be lost in this obscure spot at exactly the same time I was wandering around looking for the right place to set up, which, may I add happens to be one hour from where we grew up. What are the chances?

Other News; I'm still doing still lifes in my spare time, but I've just had too many fantastic opportunities to get outside, that I can't pass up! I'll bring those to White Magdelena, which incidentally, I'll be painting at tomorrow at noon. . . (Saturday).

sold 6x6"

Moo-Hoo #423























Cows do not answer to yoo-hoo, hey cow or kissy face noises.

I should know, I tried to get this cow to look at me the entire time while painting. When I realized the racket I was making, I decided to keep quiet so I wouldn't scare the uncooperative things off.

Anyhow, this particular type of cow is very rare. It's part polar-bear, part cow and part Brie, the dog. I had to make up some stuff as I went along, relying on my mental cow library that has seemingly not been updated since I was three.

Other News: I'll be doing a free, live demo of useless cow calls this Saturday at White Magdelena at noon - and I'll paint while I'm there too.

Samoset #422























I'm moving. I'm moving someplace with only stucco buildings and this kind of tiled roof. I loved painting it - it's on the other side of town. . . it's kind of eclectic architecturally around here.

Native Live Lobsters #421























SOLD

The lobsters are happy. I wanted to add the lettering to red banner advertising lobsters, which incidentally is what made me want to paint this scene in the first place. But when I did put the words in, it looked weird. So, I took it out. But if you are a lobster for sale here, you're safe, because you'd never know it with my version of this sign.

Greenery #420























Does this ever happen to you, you think of a thousand things to yammer on about but the minute you sit down (at your blog) you totally forget?

Other News: There's going to be a sidewalk sale this weekend at White Magdelena in Hingham Square, I'm going to be there on Saturday selling my goods. At noon I'll paint too.

Chock Full Of #419























Had I not left the house last night, I would have been right back to painting flowers in the blue vase. But thankfully, I did leave the house and got to see many, many, many paintings by an area artist I admire. And because of this I realized, flowers can be put in anything. . . like a coffee can!

Other News: I'm out of coffee.

Witch Stockings #418.5























I painted outside of White Magdelena this morning too, but finished this up before I left- still in the spirit of no blue vase (withdrawal setting in, getting a little cranky).

This one is an 8x8" please contact White Magdelena 781-749-0048 to purchase.
