Fall Rooftops

With the fall trees loosing their leaves new painting spots are revealed.

Here in the east end an unusual red house is revealed that has been painted in a few old Provincetown master painters composition. 

Vollian Burr Rann, painted the red house in his "Spring Landscape, East End". This painting hangs in The Provincetown library.

There is little know about Rann other than he painted in Provincetown and studied art with Charles Hawthorne. The red house depicted in painting  was probably painted a hundred years ago; making it part of this iconic rooftop scenes of the east end in Provincetown.

New England Fall

I just finished this painting of Bradford street. It's almost too cold for me to stand out side and paint. I like to paint this scene in the fall because the colors feel better suited for a fall harmony and there aren't as many people around this typically busy intersection.
