$800.00 – $875.00Beach Crescent 8×16
Unframed size: 8″ x 16″; framed size 12″ x 20″
“The California coast never fails to enliven and inspire me. The format I used here, twice as wide as tall, accentuates the wide expansive beach at this location, and is my representation of the area near Monastery Beach. I found many spring wildflowers in bloom, with the beach in the middle ground.” – mh

$4,600.00 – $4,900.00Big Sur Coast 30×40
Unframed size: 30″ x 40″; framed size 38″ x 48″
“This painting was created in the studio. I wanted to emphasize the variety of colors that appear on the coastal shelves in the early summer. Painting the view at this area of the Big Sur Coast requires a finesse of the values, as the layers of land drifting to the sea lose their color, going from greens in the foreground to blues in the far distance. In summer, once California’s coast has had sufficient warmth and sunlight, the wildflowers abound. This area is one of my favorite summer painting locations.” – mh

$875.00 – $975.00Cliffside Morning 14×11
Unframed size 14×11, framed size 18×15
” Early morning winter’s light creates patterns on the cliff edges and distant mountains on the Big Sur coast. I used the vertical format to emphasize the steepness of the Big Sur mountains. (The black walnut frame was made from a tree I harvested a few years ago from the Massachusetts farm where I grew up. See story here.)” – mh

$1,200.00 – $1,400.00Coastal Grazing 12×24
Unframed size: 12″ x 24″; framed size 18″ x 30″
“Along the coast road to Big Sur, I found meadows intermingling with rocky outcroppings, bait to trap this oil painter! The cattle in this view have a pasture looking out at the Pacific Ocean. I’m sure their milk tastes great as they must be happy cows. Golds and blues are great complementary colors and this combination abounds on this scenic CA-1 route. See my painting “Viva la Vida” for the same location looking south.” – mh

$1,100.00 – $1,300.00Evening on the Hill 12×16
Unframed size: 12″ x 16″; framed size 18″ x 22″
“I’m always drawn to paint big views, and the hills overlooking the Pacific Ocean offer many spectacular scenes. In early summer, before the dry season takes hold, many greens can be found in the grasses, bushes and trees, which here surround a meadow with a trail passing through it. I enjoyed standing in the meadow, listening to the bird song and painting this plein air piece while the ocean breeze kept me cool..” – mh

$750.00 – $850.00Fall Colors Yosemite 12×9
Unframed size: 12″ x 9″; framed size 18″ x 15″
“Standing almost anywhere within the Yosemite Valley I can see inspiration from the natural beauty in every direction. This plein air Yosemite painting was created in the Valley while looking up at the falls. In the late autumn, the trees in Yosemite Valley turn a golden color which complements well with the gray-lavender granite walls standing so tall there.“ – mh

Unframed size: 16″ x 12″; framed size 22″ x 18″
“Fall color in Yosemite Valley can be quite spectacular. I often travel there in the fall with my paintings friends. On this trip, we had a lodge room close to the river, and walked down to it to paint. The granite walls have a bit of a lavender tone which compliments the golds in the trees.” – mh

$5,200.00 – $5,600.00Grand Coast 36×48
Gallery wrap (unframed size): 36″ x 48″;
Framed size 44″ x 56″“This large painting references the coastline North of Santa Cruz. I made several plein air paintings at this location before I decided to make a large painting of the scene. The effect of this size makes me feel I can walk into the scene, hear the waves, and feel the sand squish under my toes. The edges are painted, so it can be hung with or without a frame.” – mh

$875.00 – $975.00Hadley Farm 11×14
Unframed size 11×14, framed size 17×20
“I often plan to visit New England in October, when the leaves are in full glory. My sister lives on the outskirts of a busy college town. I’m able to find many pastoral painting opportunities in her neighborhood. This view is I’m looking north with Mt Holyoke behind me. The tractor trail leads you into the painting, where the horses and barns sit bordered by vegetation gaining its fall colors.” – mh

$750.00 – $850.00Hillside Vineyard 9×12
Unframed size: 9″ x 12″; framed size 15″ x 18″
“This painting represents a small study with the compositional design of radiating lines. The olive trees with their blue green leaves contained the vineyard. The farm house creates a distant focal point as the radiating vines lead you into the painting. I enjoyed the day with painting friends, as I worked on this piece in a vineyard in Correlitos, CA. Autumn color abounded on the pinot vines and their oranges complement the blue sky. Back in the studio, I used this painting as a guide to create a larger painting.” – mh

$2,800.00Horses in Autumn 22×28
Unframed size: 22″ x 28″; framed size 23″ x 29″
“On the back roads of New England one can find calming pastoral scenes. One autumn day I spotted this scene, which included white horses with a red barn and a background of trees enflamed by Jack Frost. It inspired first a watercolor (White Horses) and later this larger oil painting. The early fall, especially October, is the best time to visit, when the color is extraordinary as the sugar maples, elms, and oaks prepare for winter.” – mh

Unframed size: 18″ x 24″; framed size 24″ x 30″
“In the spring, I go looking for wildflowers to paint. The blues and lavenders of the lupine always catch my eye. ”Lupine Field “ is a larger studio painting inspired by my earlier plein air painting “Lupine Find” (a 12×16 painting.) The lupine followed a path through a meadow framed by oak trees. A bit of fog shrouded the hilltops as the sun was breaking through.” – mh

$875.00 – $975.00Meadow Oak 11×14
Unframed size 11×14, framed size 17×20
“The large old oak trees and gold meadows of the central coast area draw me to their warmth and color. When the fog is in at the coast, I enjoy a journey inland to find the sun. The day I painted here, large hawks were cruising the air currents above. I used the bright orange-green to emphasis the warmth of the sun on the oak.“ – mh

“I was invited to paint on site during an Art Appreciation Day at Point Lobos State Nature Reserve. I made a 12×16 painting of the tidal pools off the South Shore Trail, near China Cove. Back in my studio later I made a larger image of the painting and emphasized the breaking wave and the distant fog bank which mirrored the shape of the wave.” – mh

$750.00 – $850.00Patio Retreat 9×12
Unframed size: 9″ x 12″; framed size 15″ x 18″
“When I studied painting in the Tuscan hills above Pisa, Rich and I stayed at this villa, part of The Watermill estate. The river actually ran under our apartment located just off this patio. I am drawn to paint umbrellas. Triangles represent the stability of the union of mind, body and spirit. The shape of umbrellas also allows you to know the direction of the sun as their color changes with each facet of the umbrella. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the watermill in Posara.“ – mh

$1,200.00 – $1,400.00Poppy Patch 18×14
Unframed size: 18″ x 14″; framed size 24″ x 20″
“Early this spring, while at an outdoor garden store, I spotted an oriental poppy that matched the color of one I painted 20 years ago after a trip to Monet’s garden in Giverny, France. I bought this poppy plant, established it in my garden behind my art studio, and the plant grew large and took over one end of a garden bed. Finally, the large buds appeared and I waited in anticipation to see the blooms. Once they came, they did not disappoint.” -mh

$2,200.00 – $2,400.00Provence Poppies 18×24
Unframed size: 18″ x 24″; framed size 24″ x 30″
“This painting is of a scene I encountered on a painting expedition to the south of France with a group of other painters. The village on the hill is Saint-Saturnin-lès-Apt, a village in the Luberon Valley. During late spring, the Flanders Field Poppies splash the meadows with their bright red color. I wish I were packing for another painting vacation in France. Looking at my paintings and photos can take me there in my memory and imagination.” – mh

$4,300.00 – $4,600.00Sea Lavender 24×36
Unframed size: 24″ x 36″; framed size 32″ x 44″
“The color of these lavender flowers along the Pacific Coast stopped me in my tracks on a plein air expedition with fellow artists. The sea lavender in the foreground sets off the Santa Cruz lighthouse at the small craft harbor. The small plein air painting I did that day led later to this larger studio work. I emphasized the lavender colored shadows from the cypress on the left side to unify the painting.” – mh

Unframed size: 9″ x 12″; framed size 15″ x 18″
“This was one of several painted while on an artist retreat in Big Sur. This painting presents a cove at Point Lobos State Nature Reserve. I sought to reflect the strength of the cliffs and the power of the ocean on the rocks below. The sun was working its way out of the clouds as I worked to create the painting. The trail above takes you to China Cove.” – mh

$750.00 – $850.00Shore Cottage 9×12
Unframed size: 9″ x 12″; framed size 15″ x 18″
“At any location, the plein air painter must narrow the scene to an image that she/he feels can be reproduced on 2 dimensions. Moving trees and omitting structures can sometimes create a more inviting image. This painting is my artist view of the estuaries around the Elkhorn Slough, where it meets the village of Moss Landing. I enjoyed the challenge of painting subtle reflections in the water.“ – mh

$1,250.00 – $1,450.00Song of Spring 16×20
Unframed size: 16″ x 20″; framed size 22″ x 26″
“I’m always drawn to paint big views, and the hills overlooking the Pacific Ocean offer many spectacular scenes. This painting began as a demonstration for my spring studio class. In my studio, I added spring colors to the meadow. There is a sprinkling of wildflowers that often appear in California meadows in the springtime. At this time of year, there are also many bird songs that fill the air. While painting, I listened to all the nesting birds in the trees around my studio: thus the title.” – mh

$1,100.00 – $1,300.00Sun on Big Sur 12×16
Unframed size: 12″ x 16″; framed size 18″ x 22″
“I painted this plein air, on the coast near Big Sur. I am most at peace while in the open air and surrounded by the beauty of trees, the ocean, or the gardens we humans have created. The majesty of the Big Sur falling down into the Pacific Ocean provokes a sense of wonder. As I paint here, I often encounter people from around the world who have traveled far to see these inspiring views.” – mh

$4,300.00 – $4,600.00Sundown 24 x 36
Unframed size: 24″ x 36″; framed size 32″ x 44″
“This painting was created after many visits to the coast during that special hour when the sun is setting. I made notes and a few small paintings to help my memory preserve the change of value as the light fades. I was particularly interested in noting how the colors of the sky are reflected in the ocean and surrounding elements. I noted how the land loses definition in the distance when our eyes can still make out detail in the close by rocks and water.” – mh

$2,200.00 – $2,400.00Vineyard Shadows 18×24
Unframed size: 18″ x 24″; framed size 24″ x 30″
“I am always intrigued by a scene that provides contrast in light and shadow. Above this California vineyard grow a row of oak trees with their large trunks and overhanging branches. The trees cast interesting pattern with their shadows on the warm ground plane. The sun was shining brightly on the distant vines, which were turning gold in autumn season. I painted the shadows a lavender/gray to complement the vineyard colors.” – mh

Unframed size: 24″ x 30″; framed size 30″ x 36″
“When I paint along the Big Sur coast, I feel a wonderful excitement, living life to my fullest. Viva la Vida is an expression of this feeling of joy. Traveling south from Carmel, past the turn into Rocky Point Restaurant, lies this meadow framed by Eucalyptus trees on one side and the rocky coast on the other. Hurricane point lies off in the distance. My painting “Coastal Grazing” is a view of this same meadow looking north.” – mh
