Bear Meeting House

"Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire: it is the time for home." - Edith Sitwell


This painting is 9" x 12" oil on hardboard. When I told my neighbor I'd paint his house I had two paintings in mind and this is the second one. This piece is part of the Winter Show at Crystal Moll Gallery, starting February 16th.

I'd also like to share some recognition I received on Friday. I was chosen for an honorable mention for the Delaware Division of the Arts 2012 Fellowship program. This is quite a feat for this very competitive award!

In the Sun

 "Most of the shadows of this life are caused by our standing in our own sunshine." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

This painting is 12" x 9" oil on hardboard. This is a commissioned painting of my neighbor's house so it is not for sale. His house was built 100 years ago and he thought it would be cool to have for the upcoming anniversary. When it was built it was used as a general store, school house (check out that bell!) and a meeting house.
