Briant Pond in Autumn Framed oil on board $400

June 10, 2013

  This plein air painting was done from the back of my car parked along Morris Avenue.  I was racing the rain and I won!  I often use water based oil paint for the ease of cleanup while on location but rain is a real threat as rain drops can make marks on the painting. […]

This plein air painting was done in my car from a parking place. I wanted to capture what someone coming to pick up a traveler from NYC would see as they wait. It’s such a part of living in Summit, the connection with the City.

Union Place, Summit-Oil painting on board $350

June 9, 2013

      This etching is from a series of prints I’ve done based on scenes along the train route into NYC or along the highways in NJ.  My artist’s book, “Neither Here nor There”  includes a number of these prints.  There is a lonely suspended animation to that area between mega city and suburbs.

Stream, South Mountain Reservation-Oil on board NFS

June 4, 2013

  This is somewhere in the South Mountain Reservation. So close to a busy road was a lovely little stream. I was hoping to capture the way you can see into the water and at the same time there’s a reflection of the sky.
