Land, Sea and City

I love painting outdoors with existing light (plein air). In the past year I've been painting in the Pacific Northwest, my new home. My travels by sailboat have taken me up and down the Eastern seaboard, from Nova Scotia to the Caribbean. My paints hitched a ride to Europe with me, when such things were possible. And I painted a lot in my long time home town, New York City.
Oil presents the greatest challenge (stuff to carry, potential mess). It is an unparalleled sensual pleasure outdoors. Lately, I've been exploring the flexibility of water-based media-- acrylic, watercolor and colored pencil. 
Below is a selection of the plein air work I have available, all 16" x 12" or smaller. They ship flat and work well with a mat or just a wall-hugging frame.
On request  I have done larger studio paintings based on my plein air work. If you see a small painting here and want something similar but larger, in oil, contact me. I have also painted particular buildings or views on commission.
