Music of the night– bandstand
Vineyard Haven Band & Bandstand.Hear it, feel it, secretly possess you.
Hearing is believing, Music is deceiving.
Hard as lightning, soft as candle light.
Dare you trust the music of the night.
Turn your face away from the garish light of day,
Turn your thoughts away from cold unfeeling light,
And listen to the music of the night.
Close your eyes and let music set you free!
From Phantom of the Opera by Andrew Lloyd Webber & Charles Hart.
Pastel, 5 x 7 $175. SOLD [Martha's Vineyard, MA]

Travel Memories: Nestled in Nantucket
Pastel, 10" x 12"$395. [matted & framed]
The weather today
reminds me of a day
nestled in Nantucket
surrounded by fog–
amidst the greenery,
between a blue sky
and fields of chicory.

Tribute: to Van Gogh
Pastel, 5" x 7"
$150.
It's that time of year.
Waning summer.
When sunflowers peek above fields of green.
Two friends: Viv and me.
Pick sunny, smiley faces
that go into waiting vases.

Catch it while you can.
This painting captures forever the scene that one day may never be seen again. The wildflower Loosestrife creates a beautiful carpet of purples, but it is an invasive plant that has taken over wetlands, choking native plants, etc. To control it conservation people have imported Galerucella beetles from Europe to eradicate it– which is working– fortunately, and unfortunately.
But, its beauty is now forever 'caught' as art. Purple 'light caught'. 100 years from now they may wonder what flowers are these, carpeting the landscape in this pastel painting.
