The Orange Marsh

oil on canvas

24″ x 24″

2024

This piece is an oil of a fall marsh in Shrewsbury. I took lots of photos in very difficult terrain of this site. In my studio, I assembled multiple photos to come up with the design for the painting. I also worked from a digital tablet. I wanted to paint this spot as I was intrigued by the wonderful orange displayed by the marsh grasses in mid October.

Impending Storm

This piece depicts farmland across the street from where I boarded my horse in Uxbridge. I looked at that field a lot. I was intrigued by how the light affected that stand of trees. One day, a threatening grouping of clouds appeared and I knew this was the view I wanted to depict, so I created this piece in soft pastel.

The Marsh’s View

Inspired by: Robert Adams, Bulldozed Slash

oil on canvas

20″ x 20″

2021

This is an oil painting of a view of a marsh in Grafton where I live. I was primarily excited by the colors and shapes of the reflections; it occured to me that this could be considered “the marsh’s view” as opposed to my view as the “marsh” itself is a continual witness to the changes in the water. I see an association to the texture in “Bulldozed Slash” by photographer Robert Adams to the textures in my painting.

I viewed this scene out of one of the windows in my house at dusk in the winter. I was intrigued by the beautiful light and color of the branches, thinking they formed windows to the greater world outdoors.

This is a plein air piece that I did from my back porch; The late afternoon light in the summer is always spectacular. I have done pastels and paintings of this spot many times.
