Miss Hannah

16"x20" Oil on canvas
 
I never tire of the beauty of Maine and the endless paintings just waiting to be painted there.  This one is from Bar Harbor.  In the evening the harbor fills up with lobster boats and a few vacationing cruisers.  Year after year we same the same fishing boats in the harbor.  It is so much fun to see the lobster fisherman come in with their lobster traps filled with lobster.

Jersey Girl

5"x5" Oil on Canvas
 
I am always drawn back to painting animals.  I guess it has something to do with having grown up on a farm; even though helping with the farm animals was not in my job description.  Maybe that had something to do with being the youngest; whatever it was, I took full advantage of it.

I love watching people.  These two were solving the world's problems over a brew and enjoying a nice spring afternoon.

Guitar Player

8"x8" Oil on Canvas
 
This is the last of my series of street musicians...well for now anyway.  This guy was in the village green in Bar Harbor, Maine.  Maine is one of my favorite places to visit.

Music Man

 
6"x6" Oil on Canvas
 
Back to my street musician series.  This was a really fun one to paint.  I saw him on one of our trips to Charlotte to see a basketball game.  Charlotte is a great city to see street musicians.  This gentleman was just delighted when I asked if I could photograph him.
