I will be showing new small paintings in custom frames that make super-special holiday gifts. Even better, a portion of each sale will support the Elkins Park Park Train Station renovation. If you haven't seen what's happening in this great new community gathering place, this is the perfect opportunity to visit!

New Paintings 

"Stormy Sunday on the Delaware" 24 x 16,
My painting focus has become more regional lately. Subject matter inspiration has come from downtown Philadelphia and up through the Delaware Valley. There are beautiful canal trails, great for hiking, on both sides of the river in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. On a Sunday in September, despite threatening weather, I found a great loop route from Frenchtown to Milford on the Jersey side, then circling back through PA from Upper Black Eddy (love that name). The scene above looks from the bridge at Frenchtown towards Upper Bucks on a moody overcast afternoon.

"Oak, Contry Lane" 12x9
This small but richly colored piece depicts a back road in Delaware where I love to go biking. The rural scene is complimented by an oversized frame made from weathered salvaged gate pickets I found near Shwenksville PA.
Framed Painting, 20x17
CHRISTMAS WINDOWS ALL OVER AGAIN
If you find yourself in Washington DC this holiday season, visit the annual ANIMATED HOLIDAY WINDOW DISPLAY that I began creating more than 12 years ago! On Pennsylvania Avenue, just a few blocks from the Capitol Dome, these displays are commissioned for the storefront windows of Coldwell Bankers by the best Real Estate Agent on Capitol Hill, Phyllis Jane Young! This year the scenes will include a Victorian town with working train, cable cars, and skating pond, a Capitol Hill Neighborhood, complete with local business, A North Pole scene with elves busy loading the sleigh, and an ever-snowing Christmas tree!
