Clothesline

Hanging Clothes, Monhegan Island, ME. 12x16 inches, oil on linen canvas.  For most people today, an active clothesline is a pleasant memento of the past.

Best Landscape

To my pleasant surprise, I learned today that my painting "Monhegan Clothesline" won the "Best Landscape" award in the 158th Annual Exhibition of Small Oil Paintings at the Philadelphia Sketch Club.

The Laundry Basket

Backyards and the spaces between houses have always caught my eye.  Here's a view of a space on Monhegan Island.  I could call this one 'the laundry basket'.  16x20 inches, oil on linen panel.

No Longer On The Easel

I've slightly touched up and re-photographed this painting of a house on Monhegan Island, so that it's no longer on the easel.  Clothes drying on a clothes line is a common sight on Monhegan.  14x18 inches, oil on linen panel.
