These two townscapes are show the colorful town of Kristinestad on the western coast of Finland. It is a small town of wooden buildings and narrow streets with a great seafaring tradition.This is a typical Finnish forest landscape. The only thing missing is a view of water through the trees.

I think "Boathouse on the Hudson" is finished. I'll have to look at it over the next few weeks to see if there is anything that I want to change. If it stands up to scrutiny I will submitt it to the New Jersey Watercolor Society 66th Annual Open Juried Show in October.News: The painting was accepted into the show on Sat. Oct. 4th.

This is an, in progress, image of a new painting of a Boathouse on the Hudson River.I completed the top half first so that I can use it as a reference for the reflections in the bottom half. Reflections are tricky. If they don't work out, I can discard the bottom half and still have a presentable painting.

This is another image of the Hudson River from Piermont NY. looking north toward Hook Mountain and the Tappan Zee Bridge.Watercolor, image size 21"x14".This is a later revision of the image above. After looking at it over a few weeks I decided to add more contrast to the hull, add more red to the foreground, darken the forested hillside, added more color to the horizon and made the high sky

"Piermont View", watercolor, 22wx14h"Riverside - Piermont", watercolor, 22wx14hThese two watercolors are scenes from the riverside town of Piermont, NY. The town is located just 25 miles upriver from Times Square, but a world away. At this location the Husdon River is almost three miles wide, so it is experienced more like a large lake than a river.

This is a recent commissioned work; an interior view of the altar of a local church. It is a much renovated and elarged church. It seems that with each renovation the interior became darker as the windows moved farther away from the nave, so that now the altar is lit mainly by artificial light.
