As a budding teenage artist, J. Barry Hanshaw sketched portraits of Winston Churchill and President Dwight D. Eisenhower.
Sixty years and a prestigious medical career later, Dr. Hanshaw paints luminous landscapes that seem to glow with an inner radiance.
Whether painting a mother and child in a Tokyo park or sunlight dancing across a field of snow at Tower Hill, he imbues his scenes with what poet William Wordsworth called "the freshness of a dream."
A retired pediatrician and dean emeritus of the University of Massachusetts Medical School, Hanshaw attributes his paintings' signature brilliance to the intuitive marriage of technique and passion.
"I like to see pictures that pop," he said.
The Boylston resident is exhibiting 14 oil paintings in a lovely show at the Westboro Gallery simply titled "Barry Hanshaw: Recent Work."
Running through Jan. 8, the show features mid-sized oil paintings of landscapes and coastal scenes from Rockport and Sante Fe, New Mexico, to Ogunquit, Maine, and Banff National Park in the Canadian Rockies.
They range in size from 8 by 10 inches to 16 by 20 inches. While Hanshaw has previously painted 24-by-30-inch scenes, it would be exciting to see him work on a really monumental scale.
It is no exaggeration to say Hanshaw -- at his considerable best -- enflames his landscapes and natural scenes with the incandescent palette of English giant J.M.W. Turner.

The rising sun bathes a rocky Southwestern canyon in golden light that contrasts against the shadowy mountains in Hanshaw's favorite, "Morning in Indian Country."
In his stunningly beautiful "Dawn," a solitary figure carrying a walking stick or maybe a fishing pole strolls along a beach in the first blushing light of morning.
The convergence of a vast,This will leave your shoulders free to rotate in their Floor tiles . variegated sky and swelling ocean is so primordial that Hanshaw's "Rockport" might have been painted on the first day of creation.
Hanshaw said he uses a paint knife to mix and layer his colors, often giving his landscapes and coastal scenes a sense of depth.
