Notes from the artist: This young Eagle had caught a Pickerel so big she was exhausted from trying to lift it up and fly with it. Not about to let it go she let me photograph her for several minutes. When she finally relaxed a bit, she was able to down enough of it so the rest was easier to carry.

Anybody Home

Photograph

Photograph

Dimensions: 16 15/16″ x 20 1/4″ framed.
Notes from the artist: During one of my urban explorations I discovered a long abandoned property. The 2nd floor was nearly obscured by scrapbook clippings. I had to tiptoe to avoid stepping on them. Once I found an open spot, this image came to life, a quick view into days past.

Promise of Spring
David Turbide
Acrylic on Canvas Panel
$150
Dimensions: Image size 8″ x 10″; mahogany frame outside dimensions 12″ x 14″.
Notes from the artist: I’ve always been inspired and fascinated by the early Spring bulbs – daffodils, crocus, etc. – that either poke up through the snow or are covered with snow after they emerge from the ground in late March or early April. This year, these daffodils fell into the latter category when the “April Fool” snow reminded us that Winter was not yet through with us.
Motif #1, from a different angle
David Turbide
Oil on Canvas Panel
$150
Dimensions: Image size 8″ x 10″; simple gray frame 9.5″ x 11.5″.
Notes from the artist: Motif #1 in Rockport, MA is one of the most photographed and painted buildings in the country. I love these seaside shacks and work buildings, especially those with their colorful buoys and/or signs of weathering and age. This building is well maintained, of course, but interesting nonetheless for its spectacular location and those lobster buoys! I’ve seen very few paintings (maybe none) of The Motif from any angle other than straight-on. So here’s another, and I think more interesting, view.
Cedar Keys, Florida
Pat Boyd-Robertson
Photograph
$80
Dimensions: 12″ x 18″
Notes from the artist: This picture was taken on the Main Street in Cedar Keys, Fla. Most of the town’s high points are up the street and in an area around the ocean. This picture was taken downtown. Most of the buildings are somewhat older and unused. The colors that come off the buildings are beautiful and not to be neglected or overlooked.
Stately Abode
Pat Boyd-Robertson
Photograph
$180
Dimensions: 20″ X 24″

$225
Dimensions: 14″ x 14″ including frame. Painting is approximately 7″ x 7″ mounted in narrow black wood frame with double off-white mat.
Notes from the artist: Most every morning, I pass all kinds of fields, marshes and streams on my walk. A constant source of inspiration. When I paint, I try to let them unfold naturally, as this field seemed to do.
In Passing
Lynn Krumholz
Oil and Cold Wax
$225
Dimensions: 14″ x 14″ including frame. Painting is approximately 7″ x 7″ mounted in narrow black wood frame with double off-white mat.
Notes from the artist: What is about those fleeting moments in nature? I find this piece to be a bit of a mystery too. Is it dusk, dawn, before or after a spring rain? I can’t decide.

Dimensions: Art 11” x 14”. Approximate size with black/gold frame 17.5” x 20.5”.

Notes from the artist: This painting was painted pleinair as spring was erupting. The subject is a mansion on the hill in Rollingsford, NH, taking center stage among the mill buildings.

Chickens in the Forsythia
Debra Woodward
Oil
$525
Dimensions: 18″ W x 22″ H with flat black frame. Will deliver within 1 hr drive from Exeter.
Note from artist: I love how my neighbors’ chickens roost in our forsythia bushes. While painting this, I learned that the painter Mondrian rejected curves because he wanted to communicate something “pure and universal”, so I went back and removed all the curved lines and abstracted it!
Joyce Andersen
Debra Woodward
Oil
$375
Dimensions: 16″ W x 19″ H with 3″gold metal leaf wood frame. Will deliver within 1 hr drive from Exeter.
Notes from the artist: I created this painting of York, Maine veteran fiddler, singer and songwriter Joyce Andersen from a photo I took of her at a house concert the summer of 2015. I was trying out the style of abstract painter Elaine de Kooning which I hoped would capture the power and energy of Joyce’s performance.
