This is the first in a series of Provincetown painting inspired by the photographs of Marshal Walden (Curbin' Art on Instagram and Facebook). Marshal's photos are so carefully and creatively composed that I rarely have to crop or alter them in any way. I am so fortunate that he gave me permission to paint from whatever image I want from his collection.
More to come!

There’s a fun “small world” story behind this painting from Pat, a former coworker, who purchased the first one I painted: “We hosted a party at our house last weekend here in Maine. After folks had been here for an hour or so, one of the guests pulled me aside and said, “Tell me about the little painting in the kitchen.” Before I launched into the whole story, I asked her why she wanted to know about that particular painting. To my surprise, she said, “I used to work in that building when I was employed by AARP.” I didn’t even know that AARP was in One Beacon, but she recognized it immediately and wanted to know why I had a picture of it. I explained our connection through HMCO, and long story short, she loves your work and might also be interested in a One Beacon painting. I told her I’d reach out to you and put you in touch.”
I love making connections like this with my art!

Molly and Ray at the Galaray House saw a painting I had on my website of a brownstone on Beacon Hill (which had sold several years ago) and asked if I would recreate it for their gallery. It was fun to revisit this unique vertical format.

Great news! A few months ago, I was invited to be included in a new gallery in Lexington, Massachusetts called Galaray House. Ray and Molly were so nice to invite me to show my work at their beautiful espresso bar/art gallery. I created this piece on spec and just learned that it is now sold!
Galaray House is moving to downtown Boston which will be an exciting new venture for my work. Stay tuned!

Dean is a grandpa! He is so over the moon that we wanted me to paint not just one portrait of his new grandson Calder, but two so he could keep one for himself and give the other to the new parents.
Don't you love his cute little outfit? So sweet.
