"Cape Cod Shells" 8x8
Oil On Hardboard 8"x 8" Commission NFSFor the last month I have been working on completing several commission pieces. “Cape Cod Shells” is the final one. The client sent me a wonderful collection of shells gathered by her family on vacations to Cape Cod. My mission was to select from this array of shells and create a painting. It turned out to be one of the more challenging paintings I have done in a while. It’s good to be challenged.
Now that I have finished my last commission of the year I am closing down my studio for a while. It’s time to turn my attention to family, friends and the holidays. I would like to thank everyone who purchased a painting from me this year and to everyone who stopped by my blog and took a look. I got some great feedback and comments on the pieces I posted. I truly appreciated hearing from everyone. I’ll be back in January with new work.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS !!!!!

Absolutely beautiful!!! There isn't a painting of yours I haven't loved!!! Gorgeous!
despite the array of shells, you have unified this panting, making one shell grow naturally out of another shell. wishing you all the best, have a peaceful holiday.
Great composition,very well done collier.
Truly beautiful and reminds me of my summers on Cape Cod.
Happy holidays to you too.
Very beautiful. The fans are a nice complement to the shells.
Another great year, thanks for sharing. You closed it out with a real beauty. I'm looking forward to 2011 and following your beautiful work. All the best to you my friend,

What beautiful work!
M. I knew this was your's the moment I saw the little image on DP. I only just now have a moment to take it all in, how totally gorgeous it is!! Challenging yes, but the fact that each shell is so thoughtfully painted and each balances and boosts the other, I LOVE it!!
