A house portrait for a real estate agent whose client was selling their beloved house.

 

 

The Jenkins conservation land in Acton was a source of inspiration for these two 5x7 color sketches.  The clouds were done with colored ink wash.  The railroad tracks through a pine forest, below, was made with watercolor paints over pencil.

 

A real estate agent commissioned this 9x12 of her client's house, to give as a keepsake to remember the house with, after the house had been sold.

 Vic's Barber Shop has been in downtown Hudson for many years serving the men of its community.  The shop, several years ago, moved from a central location to a side street due to rising rents.  As a way of preserving the presence and beauty of the old shop I enlarged an old snapshot into a 20x20 picture.  Vic's Barber Shop was featured in "Who do you think would win", a movie directed by comedian David Spade (https://www.metrowestdailynews.com/news/20170502/david-spade-filming-draws-crowd-in-hudson).  Its new location is airy and bright, filled with paintings and artwork collected by the owner.
