Happy Valentine’s Day to all of you beauties! We’re sharing more Fort Gorges love for our sibling set this week. So many soft colors glowing on this particular sunrise from earlier this winter. Such a treat! :-). And it’s always so fascinating to see how we interpret scenes and color–Michael usually has a softer interpretation […]

I was slicing an avocado the other day and realized that my brother and I had not yet painted a still life for our sibling set, so when we started to talk about what to paint, I said how about an avocado. We went for it and had lots of fun doing so . I […]

We’ve got a snowy sibling set for you today in honor of our snow day today. We decided to paint a snowy scene looking out to Fort Gorges from Eastern Prom. The snow flakes didn’t show in the photo I had taken earlier this winter, so we each did our own thing with the flakes. […]

I’ve been meaning to paint this gorgeous October moonrise I witnessed from Geary’s beach on Vinalhaven this Fall, and today was the day.

We’ve got a sunrise sibling set for you this week. This was one of those mornings where everyone ran outside to watch the magic unfold. I had already been down on the Eastern Prom with the pups and was back home getting the critters their breakfast when I saw an insane pink glow over Munjoy […]

Here’s the Observatory as seen from Cumberland Ave–I love all of the architectural lines happening here, as well as the […]

This week’s sibling set is a recent view from my street corner looking towards the Portland Observatory–one of my favorite landmarks–at sunset. We both just love this silhouetted scene. Hope you do too! It’s just so moody.

Here’s another painting of Fort Gorges at sunset from the rocky shore near the East End beach. This is a regular late afternoon walk for me in November–being near the water as day turns to night is always magical. I love how the shaded rocks at the shoreline ground us in the foreground while the […]
