John Dowd is a Provincetown painter who magically captures the feeling of every scene he paints, so the viewer is right there in that moment. And it's always a moment of mystery, excitement, expectation. Dowd never paints people — he leaves the painting open so the viewer can step in. http://www.williamscottgallery.com
