Happy 2014!

Last Chance to see the Animated Holiday Windows in Washington DC!
Soon it will be time to disassemble the holiday displays I build each year!
Coldwell Bankers Real Estate offices, 6th and Pennsylvania Ave SE
...until January 9th
 
Here's a video of the Christmas Village and Train Window

and one more of the North Pole Christmas village as elves load the sleigh

"Capitol Hill" window features a holiday village version of the neighborhood surrounding the Capitol Dome in Washington DC
The window displays have become a holiday tradition in the Capitol Hill neighborhood

 
 New Year, New Paintings

"Nightfall at Suburb Station" 2013.   Casein on muslin covered panel 16 x 12,
In this piece, the last evening light above the darkening station contrasts with the amber glow of artificial light surrounding the tracks and parking lot.


"Edge of the Old Grove", 24 x 12
This painting also features an impressionistic study of contrast in light; here the warmth of the sun on a meadow in early autumn, and the rich shade under the canopy of nearby trees.
"Religion and Commerce" 12 x 9
The title of this smaller piece pretty much tells the story of why I found the scene interesting. The view is from the walkway of the Ben Franklin Bridge , where you get a good view of the steeple of St. Augustine Church, along with  more pedestrian structures.

Thanks to all who visited
the Turtle Artisan's Holiday Pop-up!

Hope your mama got her shoppin' done!
