The Pink House in Summer — Tracy Meola Fine Art

In Newbury Massachusetts there is a house called the Pink House. It sits right by the marsh and you pass it by on your way to the Plum Island Beach. It’s one of those buildings that is “infamous”, if you live in this area of New England, you are familiar with this house. It’s unoccupied and has been for years, and is disintegrating little by little. But it has been of great interest to many artists. This house has been painted and photographed over and over in watercolor, oil, pencil, acrylic, and more, and in spring summer fall and winter. It has been documented at all different angles and through all kinds of weather and skies. So although it seems that it will one day fall down physically, it will forever stand in paintings and photos because of the lure of the artist. Below is this artist’s rendering of the Pink House. Acrylic on canvas.
