I sold this painting through Elliott Fouts Gallery in Sacramento. It was part of my solo show in February of this year.
Only a day away…

May Day!
Raising Earth (detail)
16”x20” acrylic
I spent some more time capturing photos of recent work. This one is still a favorite of mine.
In the round
I bought some 8″ round wooden boards to paint on. These have a back cradled frame and are really nice. Thought it would be fun to do some portraits!
I am also using some art supplies given to me by Jerry’s Artarama. They sent me a lot of fun materials to play with.
Nowhere is Forever
Another dramatic sky blanketing this seascape. I tend to think of many of my works as emotional landscapes. I would not call myself an “emotional landscape painter” simply because I find labels to be limiting. I probably just have a contrary nature.
The name
What’s in a name? Nothing or maybe everything… this painting seems to call out it’s name.
Getting Framed!
A morning of framing and mounting hangers on sold pieces. This one is headed to Australia!
Talking to myself
A Little Blue
A lovely little painting from just about a year ago. This painting now resides in California.
Juxtaposition
This painting shares its title with the ongoing series. It is such a bloom, I just couldn’t help it! The piece is probably my favorite to date in the series. These paintings are a bit hypnotic, I find myself lost in thought staring into them.
Golden Time
This painting is now in Jackson Hole, Wyoming at Horizon Fine Art Gallery. It is a strange feeling spending so much time on a collection of paintings, pouring yourself into them. Box them up and they are out of your life forever. The same can be said for people that come and go from a life though mostly without the boxing (inevitable there too).
The sun is breaking free of the clouds now. Happy Tuesday, I am onto other projects!
