Chesterwood Fountain


Every time I visited Chesterwood in Stockbridge, MA this summer, I wanted to paint the water fountain in the garden behind the studio.  A frieze of putti wraps the base, which gives off a warm glow, even on cloudy days.  So here it is, from a short session yesterday morning, in oil on a 9x12 panel.

Chesterwood


This small, intense painting I did last week at Chesterwood, the home and studio of sculptor Daniel Chester French, where I've been teaching a few students plein air painting for IS183, the art school in Stockbridge, MA.  The painting is 9x12, oil on panel.
