The Coast of Maine, its rugged outcroppings, the rhythms of life of the locals where sea and land make for a way of life along with the quintessential Americana of the 19th century architecture - all combine to make for inspiring motifs. The call of the numerous islands off New England have long held sway for generations of artists.
 

I have developed a body of work over the years exploring New England, some plein air and some larger studio works that portray life of the towns and coastal summer activities, families on beaches such as those at Rockport, MA as well as the primordial natural beauty of Acadia Natural Park, Maine.
