There are still remnants of snow throughout the New England landscape.  It usually lingers a while longer on the coast of Maine.

Winter Sunset

Wintry Mix

Wintry Mix - Pastel 12 x 12

Sleet and snow started to fall. Visibility was getting low but I saw that I was not alone taking a walk on this wintry February day... This is a tonal painting to remember the day.

 

Bright Lights

 Bright Lights - Pastel 8 x 16

Every night, there is a line of cars parked at this favorite spot where onlookers watch the colorful sunsets. The dwellings in the distance add to the sparkle of the sky. 

The Overlook 2

 

The Overlook 2 - Pastel 8 x 16

I could paint this view of Mount Wachusset every day and come up with 365 very different paintings. A tempting idea but I think I will limit myself to a couple more for now.

The Overlook

 

The Overlook - Pastel 8 x 16

Only a half mile away, I can enjoy the skies and view of Mount Wachusett, MA from our town's favorite overlook. This is painting #22 inspired from my daily walks since the beginning of the pandemic.

Snow Covered Train Tracks

 

Snow Covered Train Tracks - Pastel 9 x 12

From our first snow storm in town. These tracks are mostly used for freight trains that pull 2+ miles worth of railroad cars.

Peace and Quiet Under the Moon

 

Peace and Quiet under the Moon - Pastel 10 x 10

Happy New Year to all!

Here is a first painting to kick off 2021 with a sense of calm and peace. A rendition inspired by my daily walk down the street at twilight.
