'Dark Surf'

 Oil on panel

I haven't painted anything for a while as I've been readying the house & property for sale, among other necessary tasks. I painted this in late winter.

See the new link on the right for photos of the house.

'After Suzor Coté '







 

11" x 14" oil on panel

Available

 

I was inspired to paint this scene upon discovering a few small-scale paintings done by a former Quebec based artist (Marc-Aurèle Suzor Coté ,  1869-1937)  

...who had  a genius for combining  a roughness of technique with an immediacy, spontaneity, and even an elegance. (I'm not saying I achieved the same results as well as he did, but I appreciate his aesthetic, and his inspiration...) -

Main Street, Saint John, New Brunswick- circa 1900





Oil on gallery Canvas

This is looking up towards Douglas Avenue in the North End.  Most of the buildings have now been replaced,  and the steeple on the church is no longer either. I'm not sure how many residents of Saint John would know we had street cars here. Never been on one myself. Wonder what its like?
