A new panorama of Provincetown
12" x 24"
Oil with palette knives on cradled board
SOLD
This view from Fanizzi's restaurant caught our attention while we were having a fabulous meal there. We noticed that you can see all four of the familiar towers that identify Provincetown. Polo and I decided to each do our own version of this same scene at the same size and scale so they can hang together at The Red Inn.
I really amped up the beautiful sunset colors in my version. Polo is working on his version now so I'll keep you posted on that.

Wharf House Pride
16" x 8
Oil with palette knives on cradled board
SOLD
This house on Commercial Street is one of the most photographed in Provincetown. I've painted it several times but this is the first time painting it with the rainbow flag. It usually displays a big American flag. I heard this called the Wharf House but most recently I've seen people referring to it as the Flag House. Either way, it has such a cool summer beach vibe don't you think?

Lunch at the Red Inn
Approx. 8.5" x 11"
Oil with palette knives on rough birch panel
I like to paint on these rough birch wood panels when I think the subject matter can be enhanced by it. In this case, the cozy interior of The Red Inn in Provincetown lends itself well.
I always have a hard time photographing these painting to capture the correct color so I'm adding another photo I took in case this one helps show the warmth better.

Cap'n Jacks
10" 10"
oil with palette knives on board
SOLD
A favorite spot in Provincetown, MA is Cap'n Jack's Wharf. I've painted this unique place several times but this is a new view for me that shows the entrance off Commercial Street that leads you down to the beach. I'd love to be able to stay in one of the fun and artistic rooms at this place, but of course they are very difficult to book. So in the mean time, I'll just keep painting it.

A sailing adventure awaits
8x10
oil with palette knives on board
Last September, Polo and I took a wonderful 2 hour sailboat ride on the Bay Lady II. This painting is inspired by that trip as this is where you board at MacMillan Pier in Provincetown, MA on Cape Cod. In the background you can see the Pilgrim Monument and the Portuguese Flags flying on the little colorful sheds.
