I enjoy finding non-traditional beach scenes to paint. This one of a cottage set back among the beach foliage was intriguing. You know, I've spent many winters in the snow and something about this scene reminded me of the similarities between snowbanks and slopes of sand...thus the title Beachbank

Impression of a scene in the Massachusetts Woodlands

I was moved by this stunning clear blue stream while hiking in the woods during my Autumn vacation to Hampshire County, Massachusetts. I wanted to paint it then and there, but had to settle for a photo. Painted my version of it in my studio.
