The School for the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston is having their annual sale, and Nellie is there! (along with some friends)

Throwback Thursday- a show card from 1997!

The card is from my first gallery show in Boston and the painting is of my great uncle Tommy. It was a very fun reception, my entire family came to that one - My parents and brothers and sisters and even aunts, uncles, & cousins. They filled the gallery up. It was great!

Windy Woman

6x6"   oil on wood block   1998 card piece, Provincetown, MA

I seem to be inspired by the weather today in my choice of painting to post.

I just brought my dog for a walk...   its pretty windy in the Northeast  today!
(My hair was flying like the windy woman's)

Charlie

Charlie.    5x7"    oil on panel     2000

Charlie was a model at Boston University when I was a student there.  He came and sat for me one winter day.  I borrowed the red backdrop from my friend Gabe, and I remember really enjoying the reflection of the red on his skin.
