Field & Emma Playing Violin Duets at VT Fine Art Gallery



10 x 10 inches Oil on canvas SOLD




While I was painting the portrait I posted yesterday, these two talented young women played duets for 3 hours. It was so fun to try to capture them next WHILE they were playing. Not so easy to get two likenesses on a 10 x 10 canvas, with 2 violins foreshortened AND four hands!!


A little pressure working with viewers watching!

Please contact me if you wish to reproduce this image in any way.

Moose at Mountain



12 x 12 inches Oil on canvas SOLD
$595.

Plein air at the Stowe Mt Golf Course
I had fine day doing demo for the Stowe Arts Festival. I set up in front of the Golf Cottage, after meeting the Golf Pro Ron Philo. The practice green is right below me next to the cart bridge. I've started a moose painting in my studio, and couldn't resist throwing one onto the putting practice green...some folks would later ask " Oh, we missed the moose!"
Maybe that's the point of buying paintings ~! You'll have the moment in time always~
It's at my gallery in Stowe, Vermont Fine Art Gallery and looks pretty fine.

Buddha



48 x 72 approx - unstretched oil on canvas SOLD



I've been painting this off and on since May, and it's still a work in progress.
I'd like to do some more Buddha's so it's a relaxing series!
Due to the size, I thought it would be easier to roll up to send someone, then anyone could stretch it upon receiving it.
