A new atmospheric painting on the easel. I had prepared six 12” panels that are my current focus in the studio. Next week I will be moving on to some larger work.

Long Island Three
Three paintings now available through Haven Gallery in Long Island, New York. They are part of an exhibit called “The Art of Antiquity”.
Silver Shine
Fall, entering the dark season. It brings some melancholy with the beauty. Chasing the vibe on some small panels.
Moon and Sun
This is the first vertical diptych I have painted. Considering doing something along these lines on a massive scale, so many things to do…
Other Voices
A new painting in my studio. I started with a monochromatic sketch which you can see on the left. The final painting, a dark surreal image.
Churn
This is one of my favorites from the lightning series I recently finished. Considering doing a much larger variation on this theme.
Time
A small dramatic new painting. In this studio shot you can see some small jars with black lids. I use those to store key acrylic colors I premix when I paint. This is something I have done for decades. Now I use smaller jars and clean them out after use.
Freedom Colors
A new seascape on the easel today. I was thinking about Ukraine and the horror visited upon them. This world has a lot of darkness, I try to seek the light, it’s not always easy.
Evening Glow
A new painting, this one was completed over the weekend. Summer tends to get busy with visitors and all the distractions beautiful weather brings. I am trying to carve out as much time to paint as I am able. I always want to be in the studio, I feel restless and adrift when I am not.
Electric Collection
Sometimes it’s nice to dive into a subject and paint a series. These boards had been hanging around since winter and the summer storms inspired the series. I might to a big take on one of these or maybe not.
