Neil McAuliffe is a Cape Cod-based artist renowned for his realistic yet painterly depictions of New England's seascapes and landscapes. He began his artistic journey on Cape Cod, drawing inspiration from the local scenery, and pursued formal training in illustration at the Massachusetts College of Art.

For the past 15 years, McAuliffe has been working exclusively in oils, utilizing his mastery of watercolor to transition seamlessly into oil painting. His work is characterized by a realistic style that maintains the essence of a painting, rather than striving for photo-realism.

Minor rubbing and chipping to frame; otherwise in good estate condition.
