This highland steer I painted from Franconia Farm has sold. I just love connecting to collectors and hearing their stories. From why a painting speaks to them, what is happening in their lives, to shared experiences. Any and all the conversations we have. I’m grateful.

Just discovered High Rock and Scott Brook Preserve trails in Cumberland and it is a beautiful place to hike. A brook runs through a chasm, beaver dams, old stone walls and more that I have yet to see when I return. Photos don’t do it justice. #hiking #naturewalks #forestbathing #rhodeislandtrails

A Sebastopol goose. Since this is a threatened breed I won’t say where I photographed her from. I was so taken by her charm and chattiness I had to paint her. Her portrait is available at the Providence Art Club now until October 23rd. 14”x11” oil. #art #painting #goose #wildlifeart

My new book argues that shade can protect human health, enhance urban life, and maybe even save the planet.
