"Froze Up Good"

"Froze Up Good" 
 Dwyer Memorial Park, Little York, NY
16x20 Acrylic on canvas

$125
Available

Anybody who grew up in the Homer/Little York/Cortland area spent at least a couple summer days splashing in the small creek that runs between Green and Little York Lakes. So many great memories of hunting for crabs, floating coke can boats, and dam building. Here is a different look at the same creek. The recent cold has the creek bound with ice but the gorgeous red caught my eye as it clashed with the brilliant white of the snow.

Something about old barns

"Golden Hour on Clinton St Ext, Mcgraw, NY" Circa 1914
$350
SOLD

Growing up in Central Upstate, NY you're exposed to a lot of farming.  Farms dominate the landscape.   I for one love it, especially old, dilapidated barns and out buildings.  Somehow they seem like a link to the past, a voice from the past.  

This particular scene is from the tiny village of McGraw, NY.  Up on a hill, out in the wind, open to the elements.  God, I love where I live.
