Plein-air

I work to capture the fleeting light. I use a palette knife and oil paint on medium density fiberboard. This is a traditional form I learned from the Cape Cod artist Rob Longley. I have worked with this same medium in my studio, shining a tellingly bright light on a composition. This is the method I used to produce paintings like “box, shelter”. These paintings are done both in the darkened basement studio I work in with one light illuminating a still life, or on location in this area of New England.
