This summer I took a departure from my usual subject matter and shifted my focus to capturing the male figure in watercolor. The paintings have been part of an ongoing exhibition of male figure painting at Lyman Eyer Gallery in Provincetown, MA.

Becoming Barbara Bevan

Upon her retirement from teaching in 2000, Barbara Bevan told her students,"Don't ever lose your dreams; you'll get there." The time of her life depicted in this portrait came many years earlier when Barbara was on the verge of a big change. It was 1978, and at 37 years old she was the divorced mother of two young boys. By this time she had met a new man and was engaged to be married for the second time. It was late afternoon in Florida, she and her fiance were on their way to meet his parents for the first time. En route he stopped her to pose in front of a hibiscus tree. The light, and Barbara, to beautiful to pass up.

A few weeks ago, I was interviewed by Smithsonian Magazine for an article about the Provincetown Dune Shacks. You can read the article here. I was happy to contribute a quote about one of my favorite places in the world.

A note on this painting:

The Herring Cove Beach bathhouse depicted in this painting doesn't have long for this world. Plans for a new facility have been designed and approved and construction is set to begin this fall. I find myself frequently drawn to mid-century architecture and in particular, beach architecture. In 2004, I painted the bathhouse at Horseneck Beach in Westport, MA, shortly before that too was torn down in favor of a newer, more efficient facility. I am happy to document and provide record of the existence of these structures. They are memorable for their design, indicative of a very different time than the one we live in today, but also for the stark contrast in scenery they provide, their man-made geometry bold against the minimal ocean backdrop.
