Palmer River



Medium: Oil on Linen
Size: 16x48
Price: SOLD
I painted this scene of the Palmer River in Barrington, RI on three 16x16 inch linen canvases, together making a triptych. The river is named after Walter Palmer, one of the founders of Rehoboth MA. and consists of two separate branches, the east and west. The two branches start separately in Rehoboth and also converge in Rehoboth. It then runs about 11 miles south through Swansea before entering Barrington and Warren at which point it spills into the Barrington River. It is a a visual splendor with all of it's in and outs of marshes interlocking with the water's edge like pieces of a puzzle. A great river to kayak or to view from the East Bay Bike Path. This was my first triptych and I enjoyed painting it so much that I am presently working on another.
