New Richmond Peacock

Jacob--New Richmond Peacock

This is my most recent painting in the New Richmond series.  Jacob wanders around the town and is greatly admired but never petted!  This bird is distinctly beautiful but is definitely "No Touch!"

I tried to capture his beauty in a fun way with some of the iconic structures in New Richmond: the porch of the Ross Goudy historic home and the tent where community concerts are held. 

Of course, the cubist, colorful style engages the eye and adds a little humor.

More of this series is shown at the Front Street Cafe in New Richmond--a casual place for lunch or dinner right on the Ohio River.

Celebrate! New Richmond

Celebrate! New Richmond

This watercolor painting features Front Street in New Richmond, Ohio.  The colorful buildings generate a happy exclamation for this historic river town, located near Cincinnati on the Ohio River.  You can see the painting at the Front Street Cafe, a charming place for lunch or dinner with outdoor dining overlooking the river.  This summer the community is celebrating 200 years of history with many interesting events including music, plays, parades and more. This painting is framed under glass, 22" x 28" is priced at $259.
