Boston Study

New work-in-progress, ACORN STREET, oil on canvas board. This piece is also serving the purpose of a study for a larger composition, provided it turns out well. It’s off to a good start, though, but it will take a few more hours on the easel to get there. The perspective and values are solid and should provide the foundation for an eye-grabbing painting. 

This was also my first session as a student in an open studio class taught by Robin Cheers. Her artwork is beautiful, very painterly, and really captures a sense of place and activity. As an instructor, she made a very strong first impression and provided some great insights that will go a long way to improve my technique. 

Stay tuned for the finished work!

  2. You were so young when you left Boston for Galveston… do you remember any of the way the city looked? Or have you been back as an adult? We took a walking tour of the old part of Boston on one of our trips, and I think we might have walked through this painting. Looking forward to see how this work progresses. hugs,m
