The Doctor's Horses

Worked a little more on this painting. There were a couple of things that did not look quite right. 11" X 14" Oil on canvas Board $400

View From Eckert Bridge

Went with my painter friend Jim to McConnells Mill State Park in Pennsylvania one afternoon this week. He found that the park is only 36 miles from where I live. I had been driving the long way.

Emma, Two and a half

This is a quick oil sketch I did of my grandniece. I was practicing for an upcoming art festival at the Y, where I did on the spot 9 X 12 oil sketches.

Fields Ripe For Harvest

Painted this this afternoon as a demo for my class. What a lovely day!

Fall in Jackson County

After wandering around the countryside looking for the perfect spot to paint, like maybe an Amish field of corn shocks, with hills in the background, we decided to stop somewhere before the day was gone. This was that somewhere.

Fall on Beaver Creek

My sister and I went to capture some of the Fall colors at Beaver Creek State Park last week. There is so much beauty one hardly knows where to begin painting.

Pumpkin, Gourds & Corn on Dresser

Spent last weekend with OPAS friends at Cantor's Cave 4-H camp, in a cozy A-Frame. Once we started painting we could not seem to stop. When night set in we painted this little Fall arrangement, then we did portraits of one another, finally winding down at the midnight hour.
