Arcady, Summertime - redux

8x10 oil on primed cotton/panel.
I've done this view twice before in watercolor - once for me, once as a commission. There's just something about it that I can't get enough of...perhaps because it's a view the makes you realize why you drove 8 hours up from Massachusetts. Just pulling into the drive of Arcady and seeing Passamaquoddy Bay opening up before my eyes always makes me happy. So, I tried to capture it in oil.

Pricing - 2008

Pet Portaits

All my paintings are done from a photo you provide, and will be painted on archival quality, gallery style, canvas-covered art board, that can be hung via a pre-drilled slot on the back. Although mostly dogs are shown here on my site, any animal or pet you would like - dog, cat, ferret, bird, hamster, potbellied pig, llama, horse, snake, guinea pig, etc. - can be painted!

I haven't raised my prices since 2006, but need to do so this year, as materials costs have risen considerably - still, my work is reasonably priced for commissioned fine artwork, so please consider me for a pet portrait.

Watercolor - 8x10, original only, $100, framed $135
Oil - 5x7, original only, $130, framed $160

Pricing for still life and landscape oil paintings available upon request.

House Portraits

I no longer seek to do house portraits as much, but will consider special requests from friends and family. All watercolo paintings are done on Arches watercolor paper. Ink drawings are done on Bristol vellum. Prices as follows:

Watercolor, unframed, original only - 8x10 - $140; 11x14 - $200
Ink, unframed, original only - 8x10 - $125; 11x14 - $185

I do offer basic framing services, too. Prices will be based on cost of materials and labor. I can give you a quote on this as well.

Barnaby Head, New River, NB, Canada - SOLD

This is a wonderful place up in Atlantic Canada - off Rte 1 about half way between St. George and St. John, NB. New River Beach is probably one of the prettiest beaches on the Atlantic Coast. Barnaby Head is an undeveloped peninsula that can be reached via New River - great hiking trails abound here along the coast.
