The Hot Kiln

The Hot Kiln, Pownal, VT.  12x16 inches, oil on linen panel.  From my shady spot under a tree, I observed and painted the kiln, now cooling but still fiery hot at 1400 degrees, after the previous day's firing.

The New Wood Pile




The Kiln and the Wood Pile, Pownal, VT. 12x16 inches, oil on linen panel.  The weather allowed the sun to appear today, so I headed to the kiln to paint the new wood pile before it disappeared into the consuming fire.  The wood pile offers a nice contrast with all the surrounding green.

Unlit and Aflame


The Kiln, Pownal, VT.  8x10 inches, oil on canvas panel. The other day I decided to push this painting a bit further on site:  a quiet, unlit place of fire amidst the flaming greenery of spring.
