Cape Cod Landscapes

We’ll be off to the Cape again in August and I was thinking about the work I usually do down there.  I have this whole other body of landscape work. Typically I paint in the mornings and John paints in the afternoons.  Those two times of day have the best light (though it changes fast).  I like to do paintings from observation whether they’re trees, houses or fruits and veggies.  And then over time I let my imagination abstract and mix them up. 

But it always starts from observation.

I have a whole lot of work like this.  Three of these are 12” x 24” and three are 18” x 36”.  All were done in Brewster, MA.  Check out some of John’s landscapes too: http://jrufoart.tumblr.com/
