"Union Station, Portland, Maine, Remembered" circa 1936
A glowing night scene with businessmen arriving after a long day's work and shoppers returning from Boston. All are greeted to fresh falling snow at Portland's Union Station. Portlanders still fondly remember this landmark which was dismantled in 1963. Some research went into this scene. I used a 1920's Reo for the bus, an early 1930's Ford for the smaller taxi and I turned my Grandmother's 1936 Pontiac into the far left taxi. First in the Portland Series.

"Evening Chores" circa 1950
These barns are part of a long past dairy farm. It's on a road which loops off Route 2 and then back again a few miles along. It's almost as though when travelling this road, one returns to a simpler time when gasoline was 19 cents a gallon and coffee was 5 cents for a cup. I once had the 1950 Chevy pick-up that's in this picture. My daughter named it Reddy Jughead.

"Emily, 1909"
Emily's photograph was with a number of photos given to me for a commission of a cottage. After I had painted the commission, I was so intrigued by the photograph, I had to paint "Emily, 1909".

"Winter Fields"
I was traveling along winding country roads one late winter's afternoon. As the sun was setting off to the right, these barns caught the last rays of the sun. I was able to quickly work up a good sketch with color notes there and bring "Winter Fields" to life later in the studio. The ending to a great day of painting.

"Chickadee and Appleblossoms"
These chickadees are frequent visitors to my bird feeders. The apple blossom studies and sketches are from a local orchard. I then brought all the elements together to create this decorative scene.
