In case you missed my latest email, here's a new painting inspired by the Brooklyn Botanic Garden's Lily Pond. (And please join my email list!)

🖼️ New commissioned painting just went to its forever home. An amalgam of a real Park Slope brownstone in bright spring sunshine with added features: a blooming cherry tree and a box of free books. A memento of a special period in the client's life.

🎈 Off to a new home! (Never mind my inept screenshot... !!)

I painted this at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden a few years ago, just when it was starting to warm up and daffodils started to come out. It's always cheering in early spring to see new growth pushing out of the ground.

Never mind the shimmering, it's wet paint! Finished a commissioned view of .... Can you guess which corner in a brownstone Brooklyn neighborhood?

Details were added over time as the painting developed. Some things were mandated from the beginning. It was fun to have some of the elements left open-ended, and for the painting to "tell me" what it needed for it to be a lively, but calm early morning scene.

Which detail do you like the most?

Were you out there sledding?? So gorgeous the day after a blizzard, right?

Where else, but my beloved Prospect Park!

❄️ Are you on Team Snow or 🚫 Team No More Snow?

🖼️ New painting!! Snowy Dog Walk is an ode to all you dog owners and your beloved pets who head out multiple times a day, come whatever nature throws at you.

This late afternoon scene captures the low winter sun casting deep shadows, but also lending bright splashes of light onto the snow and brightening the sky. Admittedly a meager attempt to warm us up. 😅

I say "Let It Snow" if it's winter!❄️ But I would appreciate daily temps higher than 25F 🥶.
