Quiet Morning by the Water was painted from a serene scene here in Connecticut, where the stillness of the shoreline pulled me in. There’s something about early light over water that feels like a secret—it’s hushed, reflective, and so fleeting. With my easel set up outdoors, I worked quickly to capture that gentle shimmer, the calm surface, the way the trees held the light just for a moment.

This painting is about peace, about pausing long enough to notice beauty in the quiet. I hope it brings that same calm into your home.

An original oil painting of a landscape, painted en plein air, in a traditional style.
