I admire Fairfield Porter for having kept those issues alive during the period when pure innovation was predominant. Innovation remains influential today, even while representative realism has seen a revival in photorealism. The paintings on this website are displayed in roughly reverse chronological order. My purpose is to show the recent development of my work over time and let it speak for itself. There are obvious traits of Wyeth, Hopper, and Porter in them, especially the earlier ones.
More recent works incorporate newer influences.
My subject matter varies widely, from urban decay to rural Maine. I am sometimes surprised by interest in the pieces I did with no expectation that anyone would want to own them. Many of these works have been sold, but I am not using the web solely as a marketing device. I appreciate comments, and usually learn from them.
