“Boot Cove – Lubec (Winter)” (2023)
Mixed Media (Acrylic & Gouache)
12″ x 16″
One of the things that attracts me about where I live is the icy North Atlantic and the majestic cliffs of Maine’s Downeast coast. In this painting, I wanted to evoke the icy waters bashing the ancient rock which I attempted to do by using only a palette knife and building paint layers as they dried.

“Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled: for my head is filled with dew, and my locks with the drops of the night.” – Song of Solomon
“The past is already gone. The future is not yet here. There’s only one moment for you to live.”
The unfettered clouds and region of the heavens,
Tumult and peace, the darkness and the light—
Were all like workings of one mind, the features
Of the same face, blossoms upon one tree,
Characters of the great Apocalypse,
The types and symbols of Eternity,
Of first and last, and midst, and without end.
– “The Simplon Pass” William Wordsworth
