Heath House on Nantucket

Allen's House

9" x 12"

Oil with palette knives on board

Andy asked me to create a painting of this house on Nantucket for his dad, Allen. Allen is the live in resident and caretaker of "The Heath House" from May to October every year. He recently completed his third decade as the Middle Moors ranger for the Nantucket Conservation Foundation and this was a gift for his 80th birthday.

The black cat was a last minute addition to the painting. Andy told me that his dad is a "cat guy" and often had cats roaming around his property. This skinny black cat, Augie, is one of his favorites.
