Castle Hill Lighthouse
As a nocturne we can see the red warning beacon of the Castle Hill Lighthouse, and being situated so close to the water, it's easy to imagine violent waves and tough weather along the rocky coast.
This small pastel is available through the Sheldon Fine Art Gallery at Bowen's Wharf in Newport, RI.
Sachuest Point Park / Start
This is an underpainting and a good start for a view at Sachuest Point Park in Newport, RI. See above for the more developed image. There's a bench near the southern tip of the park and trail, on the east side, so this view is as one would be looking to the northeast.
It's a lovely place to walk, and the rocky coast offers many interesting vistas. I'll be making many more oil paintings from this park, both plain aire and studio pieces.
I plan to add a few more details to this one, but will keep the existing color scheme. I'll make another similar painting with more green and natural colors, but I love this fall looking contrast of orange and blues. Perhaps the trees and grasses would turn this color after a hurricane sprays saltwater. I've seen that kind of salt burn along the coastal vegetation in North Carolina after a bad storm. It takes a while, but returns to green in time.

Newport Harbor Light for Christmas
This is the Newport Harbor Lighthouse on Goat Island in Newport, Rhode Island. It's actually decorated like this for Christmas but I've added the internal red glow.
This 8x10 pastel is available through the Sheldon Fine Art Gallery at Bowen's Wharf in Newport.
Sheep May Safely Graze
Yes, I placed sheep in this one. And there's a bunny on the lawn of the house picture!
