October in the White Mountains


Bright sunshine pours over the hill after the first October snow covers the distant mountain tops in New Hampshire.

Painting a Sargent at the Museum of Fine Arts



This is a revised painting of the woman at the MFA painting a copy of John Singer Sargent's painting.  I made several changes that I hope are improvements.  I am submitting this painting to a juried Members show at the Newburport Art Association this weekend.

Painting Sargent at the MFA


On a recent visit to the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, I discovered this young woman painting a painting by one of my favorite Boston artists, John Singer Sargent.  She was doing a wonderful job!  I couldn't resist taking a photo so that I could paint her painting Sargent.

Sonoma Coast


During a recent hike on the cliffs above the ocean in Sonoma County, I found many beautiful scenes to paint.  It was early evening and the light was low on the horizon.

Colorado Summer Storm

Fast moving skies above the Lake in the mountains above Colorado Springs inspired this painting.  While following the path around the lake last September I took over 200 photos for references for future paintings.  This is the first of many I plan to paint.

Portrait of Roger

This is a 16 x 12 inch portrait of my husband, Roger.  It is hard to say when a portrait is finally "done".  There are always many changes one can make.  This is the current stage of my attempt to capture Roger's persona on canvas.
