Via Miranda (watercolor 9 x 19) Available
From Miranda del Castanar, all the views are vistas but all the vistas are framed by narrow streets. This little half timbered village, with a population of less than five hundred is a joy to wander.

Leaving Segovia (watercolor 23 x 16) Available
Driving out of Segovia’s old town ends with a spectacular view of the aqueduct. Driving out on a rainy night, is like driving into an impressionist painting of the aquaduct..

The Church in San Martin (16 x 23 watercolor) Available

Setenil Fortress (watercolor 15 x 24) Available
Setenil de los Bodegas of Cadiz Province, Spain is one of the more interesting pueblos blancos of Andulacia. Unlike most pueblos blancos it occupies either ridge of a valley rather than a hilltop. Many of the houses are semi-troglodyte, occupying shallow caves in the valley walls. One street includes a natural tunnel.
The view in this painting is from our apartment porch in Setenil looking across at the old castile.

Haarlem Kirk (16 x 23 watercolor) Available
We spent our last day in the Neatherlands in Haarlem. Haarlem is just just under a half hour by train from Amsterdam, but feels like it’s miles away because where Amsterdam is large and lively, Haarlem is small and quiet.
The young women in the foreground were adding more chalk to a square already covered in graffiti. None of it was pictorial and all of it obviously washes off with each night’s rain.

Stairs to Cesky Krumlov (12 x 22 watercolor) SOLD,
Cesky Krumlov is a magical town of twisting streets, nestled in a river bend. The castle, churches, and residential neighborhoods occupy the hill about town. This is the view is the from the residential neighborhood above the river. The “street” down into town is actually a stairway.

Riomaggiore Hillside (16 x 22 watercolor) SOLD
We visited the Cinque Terre or Five Lands in 2012. Clinging to the the cliffs about the Italian riviera, these charming wine and fishing villages are an Italian national park and a tourist magnet during the summer. I painted Monterrosso, the largest of these villages last year. This is Riomaggiore, the smallest of the Cinque Terre, and the first village many tourists see. It was the first village we visited. And yes we were charmed by it’s pocket sized harbor and steep narrow streets. But these first paintings are not of the houses on the harbor cliffs, but the vineyard hills.
A Slice of Riomaggiore (10 x 12 watercolor) SOLD
These paintings have sold, but you may still purchase fine art prints here.

And Suddenly the Duomo (15 x23 watercolor) Available
Old town Florence streets are shaded lanes so narrow they almost feel like tunnels running at irregular angles to each other. The view at the end of the tunnel is often as not another narrow lane cutting the street off at not quite a right angle. But here there the streets open into plazas with startling sunny views of churches, cathedrals, bridges, train stations and castles. Walking from our apartment, the Duomo complex burst upon us in much the same way–the light at the end of the tunnel.
Another poured watercolor painting, a process much like batik.

Alley Shortcut (10 x 14 watercolor) SOLD
I drove into Corvallis a little early a couple mornings ago and spent the extra time before opening the gallery taking pictures of downtown. The sun was out, but it had just recently rained and the streets were still wet. The light was gorgeous. This little alley is just a couple blocks from Art in the Valley. The reflected light running up the damp pavement caught my eye.
I used a limited palate, but not as limited as my last cityscape: cobalt blue, phthalo blue, raw sienna and quinacridone brown madder. The vast bulk of the painting is brown madder and phthalo blue.
[This painting sold February 23rd 2012, but you may still purchase a print from Fine Art America.]
