Moonshine
A new nocturne painting in the studio. I really love the mood of this piece. I might pursue some larger variations on this theme.
Hidden
I am working on three of these unusual paintings. Dark, brooding and mysterious. I am continuing my summer of modest sized works, looking forward to scaling up in the fall.
Next March I will be having a solo show at Haven Gallery in New York. Many ideas and much work ahead! Stay tuned.
Passing (revisit)
This moody stormy painting was always a favorite. It is available through Momentum Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina!

Mood
I am obsessed with moody landscapes. The feeling of vastness in stark contrast with your own limitations as a human.
This planet is filled with inspiration. I like mine a little haunted.
Unseen
Taking an unplanned artistic excursion. Excited to see where this will take me. I have four 12” x 12” panels, I will do a collection!
Towers (another look)
This large painting has been hanging out in my studio for a few seasons. I almost sent it to my solo show in Asheville this May but decided to hang onto it for a little while.
Drift
The nonstop small painting continues. This painting has inspired me to work on a couple of 18” x 24” paintings of a similar vibe. I am interested in pushing the moody nature of this piece at a grander scale.
Shine Again
The sky is an endless source of inspiration. Chasing subtle shifts in light and shadow. The orchestrated chaos of my painting style brought this piece to life.
New Day
I am working on more small paintings. Squeezing in studio time into these busy summer days. These works will be headed to a number of “small works” exhibits this fall. I usually am rushing to finish small works in September/October but this year I will be ready!
