Conversing On The Street

Tunnel City

A painting I recently completed of Tunnel City Coffee on Spring Street in Williamstown, MA, for a Williams alum.  It's an autumn view from five years ago.  A similar painting is on view at Tunnel City.  12x24 inches, oil on panel.

Exhibition at Tunnel City

I have a number of paintings on view at Tunnel City on Spring Street in Williamstown, MA.  Also on view are the brilliant photos of @hudsonroadphotography.   See www.hudsonroadphotography.com.

Spring Street Corner

I keep plugging away trying to turn the corner, to get away from the oppression of winter.  This is a view of Tunnel City Coffee on Spring Street from last year in the fall.  The blue is more blue gray in the original.

Distinctly No Snow

Not a snow scene: a 12x12 oil on canvas of Spring Street in the fall, and early in the morning.

After seeing the movie Mr. Turner, I started reading about him.  There's a story that a particular landscape did not sell for a long time, and the eventual buyer said that it was "indistinct."  Turner either said in response, "Indistinctness is my fault," or "Indistinctness is my forte."  I love it that indistinctness underlies his indistinctness.

Spring Street Interlude

This is a painting I finished a few days ago, an 18x24 oil on canvas, another in the series of Spring Street in the fall.

Spring Street in the Fall 3

I didn't think I would finish this painting today (I may still touch it up): a 12x24 oil on panel.  Now I can move on to a few pastels.  I also started one yesterday.  After I completed the two earlier paintings of Spring Street, it was suggested that I move to the other side of the street.  I hope this suffices.
