Maine Marshes

The “Graffiti Train” on the Lambertville towpath is an iconic landmark and familiar to anyone who hikes and bikes along this beautiful path. This sidelined train car, covered in art and immersed in this serene setting, has always appealed to me and resonates with me now more than ever.
This was painted en plein air at Sugar Shack Farm in Erwinna, PA. This was my first (of hopefully many) outings with the wonderful group known as Peace Valley Plein Air Painters.
I painted this en plein air, on a beautiful late afternoon/early evening in April 2024, as part of AOY Art Center’s Paint Our Towns Plein Air Open. Located in the heart of historic Bucks County, PA and situated on a subdivision of land originally deeded by William Penn to his daughters, Rose Bank Winery is a beautiful estate consisting of a manor house and several outbuildings… a perfect site for painting en plein air!
This painting was painted en plein air on an incredibly windy day in April, 2024, as part of AOY Art Center’s Paint Our Towns Plein Air Open.
