GARDEN SHED, 11x14, oil

The sun light was focused on the stone garden shed.  This was painted entirely with a pallet knife.

GIRL SCOUT CAMP, 12x18, pastel

The Girl Scout Camp is a Hanover treasure and is on the outskirts of Codorus State Park. The camp was almost lost to development several years ago but the community stepped in and it was saved. This little cabin has seen many overnighters and there is a fire ring with benches on the other side of the pond.  I'm sure many memories were made here.   

SNOW DRIFTS, 11x14, oil

Several years ago I painted this scene in pastels but it went missing so I decided to paint it in oils.  The scene is out my back door after deep snow fell during the night.
