Fred Swan’s love of the rural American countryside is evident in the simple and serene paintings he creates. Residing in a small Vermont town, Fred is inspired daily by the wild and rustic beauty that surrounds him. Whether it is the warm glowing windows of a winter home, a delicate maple leaf, or a sea of dandelions in a spring meadow, Fred Swan paints each detail with a patient hand and an eye for realism that few artists possess. In Fred’s paintings you can almost smell the sweet roses of his cottage gardens, hear the crackle of fallen leaves, and taste the hot cocoa awaiting his homeward bound winter skiers.
