Swamp, Mecosta County

My family and I found a little dirt road we had never before explored, and lo and behold, it had a fantastic view of this gorgeous hidden swamp. So I went back on a hot summer day, parked myself at the edge of someone’s field, and had a lovely day of painting. This landscape will be at the Croton Artisans’ Holiday Show this weekend, where I’ll also be painting half-hour portraits. Come by to say hello, see some beautiful arts and crafts, and if your timing is right, snag some of Yoshimi’s amazing sushi.

This is a larger one for me, from a couple photos I took last fall. The highest cliff in the distance is called Gertrude’s Nose. (I wonder who Gertrude was and what she looked like.) At any rate, I just love this stretch of road. There’s a sunflower field along here that I am determined to go back and paint this summer.

Here’s another large one. This is some out-of-the-way farmland just south of the Finger Lakes region, on a cold, bitter day, when the last of the snow was not in any mood to melt. Unless it sells in the next few days, this painting will be hanging in my show at the Flat Iron Gallery in Peekskill for the month of March. (Reception is Sunday; come on by!)

I’ve been working on some larger landscapes recently. This is another view of the cedar swamp, skiing home across the marsh in the afternoon. It’s always a nice, serene way to end a ski, after managing the dicey little hill down onto the ice without crashing or putting an eye out.

Unless it sells beforehand, this painting will be part of my upcoming show at the Flat Iron Gallery in Peekskill, NY. Opening reception March 2—save the date!
