It's been way too long since I've posted! My excuse is that I'm lame. This is a recent sand painting I did for a gift. It's 12"x12" enamel and sand on board.

Stratum%28RedCarpet%29-web.jpg

In an ongoing search for recycled materials, I "ran" across some red carpet. In a Mark Rothkoesque fashion, my intention was simply to create a landscape feel with one horizon line. It's glued on painted board, 17"x22".

During our trip to North South Lake I seized an hour or so create this oil sketch at the site of the former Catskill Mountain House. The site overlooks the entire Hudson River Valley. Although the day was hot and hazy, the view remained magnificent.

This is a casein sketch of another potential painting based on a photograph taken by Jen Judge and torn from Outside magazine. My intention with this image along with the ones from a previous post is to eventually lose recognition of the source image, creating a final image that is more abstract and pattern oriented. Inspiration for this experiment can be found in the images of Shawn Dulaney or Kevin Kearns.

Currently I have three of these images down on oil primed wood panels. Once their under layers are dry I intend on going at them with sandpaper, glazes, scumbles, whatever seems interesting. Results may vary.

Several recent photographs in the New York Times truly entranced me. For some time now I have been thinking about creating some paintings that are more pattern oriented than usual. Something similar to the White Mountain Blues painting but perhaps even more abstract. These small casein sketches are my first step in that direction. Thanks to Kevin Moloney for the inspirational photographs.

Recently I completed this painting of the Old Mill on the island of Nantucket. I posted the initial sketch for this last summer.

Currently I am looking into framing possibilities. Continue reading to see some my considerations. I intend on using a linen liner for the first time.
Let me know what you think.

Recently I completed a 36 by 36 inch painting for above our mantle. This painting is based upon a study from a previous post. The large painting for my brother's home (mentioned in the previous post) has been completed and delivered to NH but I have yet to see it. Once I make my way north I will surely take some pics and post them here.

My mother "commissioned" me to paint something for the O'Neill family Christmas card. Her suggestion was a painting of some ornaments. I suggested one of a nutcracker. This is the image that resulted. As the card states, "May the joy of Christmas be with you throughout the New Year."

My most recent painting done out east: another image of rocks at lowtide on the Long Island Sound. The painting is 6x12 inches on panel and was completed over two afternoons, several weeks apart.

Several weeks ago I was fortunate to spend four uninterrupted days painting on the island of Nantucket, Massachusetts. The results are posted here. Click on each thumbnail to see a larger image.

Recently I "discovered" this spot on the Long Island Sound up the road from my parent's home. The shifting tides expose rich green seaweed clinging to sunbleached rocks. The color effect this creates is amazing; material I could mine for many paintings.
All of which I will post here.

This small painting is actually a study for a much larger painting that will be placed next to the front door of my brother's home in Holderness, NH. The final painting will be 31"x45". This study is 11"x15". Ordinarily I do all of my painting in oil: the initial drawing or rub out, the underpainting and then the final glazes. In this case I am doing the underpainting in acrylic and will finish with oil glazes on top. What we are looking at here is the acrylic underpainting of the study. My next step will be to grid out both panels and transfer everything to the larger panel. When that is done I will go into the study with oils and then repeat (sans mistakes) on the larger panel.

Once the oil has dried on the study I will make another post and show the results. I am hoping to have the large panel painted and in NH by early summer. Till then click on the study to see a larger image.

I needed the large panel to be a specific size and be as sturdy as possible so I special ordered it from Prospect Heights's own, Simon Liu Inc. Fine Painting Supports. The panel was not cheap but the expense was worth it. Simon Liu produces incredibly high quaility painting supports and my panel is no exception. Simon Liu also has a well stocked art supply store in the back of his workshop. If you are in the neighborhood stop by.

Above is a detail of a recently completed oil painting depicting my cousin Christopher and his wife Jill's wedding bouquet. I had a local New York florist recreate the bouquet using a photograph taken at the ceremony and a list of flowers provided by the original New Hampshire florist. This new bouquet was placed in the sconce that held them on the dock the day they were married. The flowers were thus painted from life. The background I slipped in later using photos, sketches and memory as reference. It depicts the view one would see from the dock on Cotton Cove, Squam Lake, Holderness, NH. This painting is a belated wedding present to them. Click on the detail to view the entire image.

Another small painting done on the North Fork. This one is of a sod farm in Mattituck. I scouted out (sketched) the location this summer. Doing so allowed me to complete the painting in an afternoon. The painting is oil on canvas board, 8x16 inches.

Over Thanksgiving I was able to pick up two paintings I'd left drying at my parent's home on the North Fork of Long Island. Both paintings were done on the same September day, at same New Suffolk Road location on Peconic Bay. The smaller one I did rather swiftly while facing south west as the sun shifted and illuminated the south easterly view seen in the wider painting. That painting took several hours to complete as I was attempting to capture a very specfic view that included the house on the left and the osprey nest on the right.

The wider painting is 8x16 inches. The smaller is 7x8 inches. Both are oil on canvas board. Click on either for a larger view.

Above is a cityscape I am currently working on. Like my landscapes, all work has been done on site using my travel easel. Weather permitting I hope to enjoy (at least) one more session outdoors before having to head into the studio. Once inside I'll rely on digital photographs in order to put final touches on the painting. I'll keep you posted on it's progress and post a final pic once I am through.
