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.

It always baffles me to find trees growing out of a crack in a rock. So little space, so little soil and yet enough to sustain life. We hiked the Boulder Loop Trail in the White Mountain National Forest of NH to access the ledges. It was a 3 or so mile, easy to moderate hike. We were rewarded at the top with some outstanding mountain views.

This painting is of a scene from one of my favorite places in RI. It is called Caratunk and is a wildlife refuge thanks to the Greenhalgh family. It is a place which I visit often to enjoy the scenery, quietness and wildlife. I capture the moment with either photographs or quick field sketches and return to my studio to paint while the experience is still fresh in my mind. During this particular visit we saw a buck and four female deer. This painting can be viewed in my studio at The Providence Art Club, Providence, RI.

Rock Harbor is a very unique beach located in Orleans, Cape Cod MA. There you will find small trees growing out of grassy sandbars and at high tide they look as though they are growing in the water. The Cape topography never ceases to amaze me. Thanks Susan for sharing this special place with me.

This painting is part of the Isle of Springs series. Isle of Springs is an island which is a part of Maine and located near Boothbay Harbor. It's landscape is typical Maine but yet somehow different from what you normally see on the mainland. The early morning light was amazing as it filtered through the fog. This series of paintings can be viewed in my Providence, RI Studio by appointment.
