Walking Crescent Beach

40" x 30"
Oil on canvas

I painted this from a photo I took on Siesta Key, FL, in February, 2015. It was a cool day, but the sun was bright -- it produced strong lights and shadows, and warmed us enough to walk in shirtsleeves. I love the ubiquitous sun visor and rubber flip flops she has with her. The blue life guard stand is one of four along the beach: red, yellow, green and blue. When you want to meet someone, you give them the color of the stand near you. 

This painting won an award at Art In The Park, University Park, FL.

Blue Cooler

Oil on Canvas, 10"x10"

Blue Cooler
This is a fellow I spotted in the paddock at Saratoga National Race Course, one of my favorite people-watching locales. Yes, the horses are more beautiful, but I love the way the spectators stake out their spot for the day, bring their needs in a cooler, and their comfort in a portable chair, and settle in for a day of betting. His buddy must have just gone to place his bet; he left his Coors on the cooler.

Last weekend, my husband and I went to The National Museum Of Racing Hall of Fame to hear Greg Montgomery speak at the opening of the new gallery they’ve devoted to his 30 years of posters for the annual Travers Stakes race. These silk-screened works are such an inspiration to me. He’s a graphic designer who has taken actual images from the track and created iconic works that are simple, elegant and visually stunning.

Three Wood

Spring time golf in the north country is often cold and rainy. But I took this picture on a sunny day which gave me deep shadows and warmed it up. I think this painting is more in keeping with my large paintings – simplified shapes and broad, flat planes of color. I’m starting to think of these mini paintings as sketches for large format paintings, a way to work out color, form and composition. I like the way this one scales from very tiny to possibly very large.
