From pretty gardens, trees in bloom to seascapes, I have a eclectic collection of work.
Off to work!
I saw this pretty scene one day after dropping my daughter off at school. The pretty spring sky had pretty pink clouds and there was a car with glowing headlights. A pretty spring morning. Looks like Dad is up early with the Model A, and headed somewhere. Work, or to Dunkin's to get a coffee. Whereever he is going, its a pretty start to a glorious day!
Look at me
Sold out
That's what it seems this tree is saying to me... Look at me!! And I do.... each spring I enjoy seeing these two trees ablaze with pink blooms. After spring, they look like ordinary trees, but for a short time, they are on display creating beauty for all who pass.
Patriotic Highland Light
This is a painting inspired by a photo from my friend Gerard, who loves to travel, and has a great eye. The lighthouse already had some patriotic buntings, but I added a few more, and a bike. I'd like to think that a neighbor has stopped in for a tall glass of lemonade, and is enjoying the sights from the kitchen window. Hence the bike leaning against the fence. Maybe even enjoying a warm cookie from the over? Too far? lol! That is how my family loves our cookies, straight out of the oven. But back to the painting, see how easily I get distracted?
This painting is 20" wide by 16" tall, and has a light varnish over painting.

Painting is unframed, but I have black frames available in another listing. Sides are painted white, so you could hang it as is.
Going home!
Going home! That's what this car is doing.... this is a pretty home along Ocean Drive in Newport, Rhode Island. I always love the charm of this little guard house entrance. So of course is inspired a painting. I added the cute car and pink flowers. Car is similar to one I rode in as a kid. My Dad's friend had an old Ford with a rumble seat! What fun to ride in one! Something you should do if you have never done it.
So these people are arriving back home, after....... lunch? A drive along Belleview Ave seeing mansions? A lunch at Breton point? Whatever your mind can dream up. If you look close she has a pretty purple hat on, so I am going with a nice picnic lunch at Breton point where you were enjoying watching the kites.
Either way this cheery painting reminds you of simpler times......

New London Lighthouse
This is a painting inspired by a photo from my friend Jeff. He loves to Kayak and the view is great from his perspective, the water. This is the New London, Ct lighthouse. I added the boat and flag.

Windham Door
Sold out
I am always entertained by a pretty door and porch. Add in some climbing roses and I am hooked.
This home is in Windham, Ct, and I always look to see what the roses are doing... are they in bloom? Are they budding? Or are they dormant? Now that I am thinking about it, this could become a series of paintings of this door.... see how my mind works?
This painting is 11" wide by 14" high. Painting will arrived unframed.
Summons to the Breakers
Is it a summons or a visit to look forward to? Who knows? But either way this car is headed into the incredible Breakers Estate in Newport RI. I am imagining that it is someone looking forward to a visit, perhaps afternoon tea, on the beautiful balcony overlooking the ocean. This "Cottage" is an incredible place to visit, nevermind living here for the summer. I am so thankful that these "cottages" by the sea were saved and are open for us to visit and imagine days gone by.

Louisa's Hollyhocks
We were lucky to visit the beautiful state of California this past summer. One of the lovely places we visited was Cambria. A beautiful town by the sea. It had pretty shops and a beautiful coastline. This was at the historical society in town. It is a pretty farmhouse with stunning gardens. I took a ton of pics, as it was just so stunning and knew I would be painting something from this farmhouse. I did some research on the farmhouse, and it was at one point owned by a woman named Louisa. So it seemed natural to imagine these were her flowers.
So here are Louisa's flowers, reaching for the sun, with the pretty farmhouse and porch as a backdrop.
Painting is 24" x 18" on canvas, 1" thick. Framed with a wooden frame with red accents.
Painting will arrive ready to hang in your home!
Wedding Series, Spring
My family has a car that has been used in most family weddings. So this inspired me to paint it, at weddings, throughout different seasons. Here is the spring season, with a tree in full bloom for spring. And if you are corny, like me, their love. :)
The model A is waiting patiently for them to finish their vows, and take them away to the celebration, then happily ever after.
There is a hidden mickey for those that look!

Cambria Blooming fence
This was a pretty scene I saw while visiting Cambria, California recently on vacation. It was my first time visiting California, and I was so inspired by its beauty.
These flowers were blooming riotously along a fence, with the pretty little house in the background. There was a modern car in the driveway so I switched it to my favorite car, my Dad's model A.
Its almost as if you can feel the warm summer day, and smell the beautiful blooms.....
