| Delaware Crossing 8 See other Delaware Crossing drawings in my Colored Pencil Gallery |
8.5 x 25.5, colored pencil on paper. On this gray day in late winter I wanted to suggest impending movement through the dynamic shapes and lines of this railroad scene. (Central Avenue, Delaware). |
|
||||||
| Field Repose |
27.5 x 39.5, colored pencil on paper. This is the largest colored pencil work in my portfolio. Because the evening sun is waning over the fields, I used varying strokes and pencil pressure to create lights and darks. Off the busy main roads, beautiful scenes are still to be found. |
|
||||||
| Forgotten Paths XIV |
19 x 25, colored pencil on paper. Traces of a path lead to a forgotten parlor door of this farmhouse on Big Walnut Road in New Albany, OH. |
|
||||||
| Forgotten Paths XV1 |
24 x 16, colored pencil on paper. This elegant Italianate farmhouse perches gracefully on a hill overlooking Alum Creek. |
|
||||||
| Morning Radiance |
19.5 x 19.5, colored pencil on paper. I was awestruck by this magnificent tree spreading its branches in the early morning dew of July. |
|
||||||
| Morning Run on Old State Road |
30 x 40, oil on canvas. Early morning sun streams across a field, burning off the last wisps of fog. The country road offers a route for contemplation of the day ahead. |
|
||||||
| House at Field's Edge 1 |
10 x 20, colored pencil on paper. In these two views of the same house, I wanted to convey the isolation and stillness of a Sunday morning. (Delaware County). |

| House at Field's Edge 2 |

| Signs of August |
20 x 30, colored pencil on paper. A sea of corn stretches to the horizon on either side of the road; to the right a long narrow road leads to an isolated farmhouse. (Rt 36/37, east of Delaware). Just down the road new commercial centers are being completed. |
|
||||||
| The Playground Tree |
28.5 x 22.5, colored pencil on paper. (Peachtree Road). The center of interest is really the knarled tree and much used lawn by this abandoned schoolhouse. |
|
||||||
| Field Calligraphy |
17 x 25.5, colored pencil on paper. (No. 5 Gooding School, Route 23, now demolished). From old photographs and records, I combined students' names in the grasses of this now demolished schoolhouse. |
|
||||||
| Waiting for Gas |
17 x 25.5, colored pencil on paper. (Central Avenue, Delaware). This stately little building was once a gas station. I was intrigued by the car parked to the side, and vestiges of the gas pipes |
|
||||||
| Dreams at Dusk |
12.5 x 25.5, colored pencil on paper. (Howard Road, Alum Creek area). The evening sun in late summer castes a dreamy spell on lake roads. |
|
||||||
| Tree Cathedral |
30 x 22, colored pencil on paper. (Orange Road). This majestic arch of foliage and supporting trunks and branches reminded me of a Gothic Cathedral. This road may soon be widened and the trees cut down. |
|
||||||
| Sky Notes: Late Twentieth Century |
.22.75 x 29.75, colored pencil on paper. The sky is the message board for impending changes to this farm field. (Delaware County). |
