9x12 from the Hammonton/Noyes Paint Out last month.

Seaview Country Club

A fine old south jersey institution. I'm doing a demo for their Sunday Brunch this week...and putting some work in the gift shop( via the Noyes Museum )! The best part is that I finally seem to be pulling out of the winter slump. 6x8

Easter Morning at the Country Club

5x7 I'll be doing a demo at Seaview Country Club for thier Sunday Brunch this weekend. Its a beautiful property!

Hammonton Farmlands

6x6. The smaller of two paintings I did last week for the annual Hammonton Noyes Museum Paint Out.The larger( and better )painting is on display until the end of the month...I'll get an image then! My day was cut short after getting infested with ticks while doing this little piece. I was sitting on a grassy hill, didnt think they would be in a place like that!

Little Orchid

After indulging in a slump for the last month I finally picked up the brush today and did this little 6x6. It felt good! Small paintings to begin with, but I'm really itching to get outside....just need some green!!!

Windy Day on the Wetlands

From last week....it was cold and windy, but the sun was bright and the flattened grass is a harbinger of Spring. 8x6

Summer in the Park..finished

14x18

Summer in the Park

I'll be adding some more definition to the leaves and lilypads, but I'm quite happy with this warm summer memory in the cold of February. Been working on commissions ...several are copies of paintings that were already sold. Out of respect to my collectors I will never publicly show repeats, even though I retain the right to the image. As it is I've never been that comfortable copying previous works, but these days I simply can not turn my back on any income oppurtunities. 12x16

Yellow Roses

My Basset Hound Archie passed away two weeks ago at the ripe old age of 13 1/2. I spent the previous two weeks spending every moment with him that I could, knowing that my old friend and companion was nearing his end. These flowers were a sympathy arrangement. 6x6

Changing Times

It feels to me sometimes that after 6 years this blog has run it's course. I thought for a while I would just start a new blog or simply let the blogosphere go. One thing ...as far as marketing goes I've had a lot of success on facebook this past year, so I'm much more inclined to post the freshly finished painting there. However as a side gallery to my website I think Chuck Law's Art Pages should continue on. It's also my easiest and favorite archive for all the smaller works I've produced since going "professional". So what am I trying to say here...the blog will ultimately continue on, but the posts will be less frequent as they've been for a while. Meanwhile here is one from last week. Winter Evening on Monroe. 9x12

Merry Christmas

Sorry for the blog neglect. I haven't been doing the daily's for the last few months. A few commissions that couldn't be posted publically. I plan to get back into plein air full time after the New Year!!

Winslow Trains

Fall came in like gangbusters last night. So invigorating to get out and paint! 6x8

A Very Red Tree

September Sunrise with Bird

From the Stone Harbor Causeway last month. I went back in a few days ago and altered a few things with this. My goal is for better paintings. Slowly I've let go of my need to depict the landscape exactly as I see it. Impression: Sunrise :) 8x10

Work in progress: Great Falls

A scene from Patterson NJ. A friend took me up there last spring to show me this wonderful place. The second largest waterfalls on the East Coast! This has been so much fun to paint! 36x24

Like a Picture

This beautiful sailboat really did cruise by when I did this 5x7. I painted it in first before it was gone, then filled in the rest I knew it might look staged, but who could resist!?
