"Morning at White's Market"

















6"x8" Oil on Canvas Panel

A great little place on the north end of LBI near the beach where there are no large grocery or big box stores.  The island is dotted with these small summer markets that you can walk or ride your bike to.   I really love that about the island.

"Mill St Stockton"



















8"x10" Oil on Linen

Late fall on Mill Street in the tiny borough of Stockton NJ. This is in the area that the Pennsylvania Impressionists lived in and painted along the Delaware River.  The area is rich with Revolutionary war history and art.  Much of it remains as it was a century ago.

"Barnegat Bay November"


6"x6" Oil on Canvas Panel

The light this time of year is low so the clouds have a beautiful color.  I wanted to paint this plein air but it was too windy out so I painted it from inside the house!  So quiet out this time of year on the bay.  Just starting to see some of the winter residents - brant, mergansers, buffleheads.

"Persimmons"





















6"x6" Oil on Panel

I really enjoyed painting these and I was going to do a few more with
these persimmons but they ripened so fast and I had to eat them.

"Barnegat Lighthouse"





















Color Study - NFS
8"x10" Oil on Canvas Panel
Plein Air of the Barnegat Lighthouse on a hot summer
morning in July.  I was happily painting this plein air
when the Coast Guard started practicing an ocean
rescue exercise. The low flying helicopter created a
hurricane-like spray of  water and sand. Luckily, I
was almost done with my painting.
