Here are a few shots from the show just before the opening! It was a fun time met a lot of great local art patrons!

Betty Feves Memorial Gallery
We spent all day yesterday setting up the show. Lori Sams is the gallery director and she does a great job, brought in a couple of assitants too! The opening is tonight, should be fun.
Pack up the plantation
29 paintings and Lulu
Getting my work together for the next show.
Filling my living room twice!
Water & Light
48″x36″ acrylic painting.
I was working on this while also painting “Sea Change”, which I recently posted. They certainly share some color and lighting approaches. I typically like to work on a few paintings at the same time. The end result being you have three paintings that work well together and it keeps the momentum up. These paintings were so large that two was plenty!
Sea Change
This is another large acrylic painting (48″x36″).
I am working on a number of large paintings currently. This one is basically finished!
Finished Wandering
I completed the unwieldy cow painting I started about a week ago. The finished painting is 48″x36″ mounted on a 3″ deep cradled board.
I could not fit the painting in my photo cube and had to take a photograph of it leaning against a wall. This painting has a lot of interesting shine beneath the surface which makes it intriguing in person but difficult to photograph.
Wander
This is a large bovine painting I am currently working on. The painting is 48″x36″.
Little Rain
This is an 18″ x 18″ acrylic painting.
The Pines
This is an 18″x18″ acrylic painting.
I read somewhere the description of tonalist painting as “breath on glass”. The idea of something barely there. That phrase echoes in my mind now and again… It is a beautiful notion.
Dead or Alive
I just received the postcard for my art show in the mail! It looks a lot like a “wanted” poster which is pretty great.
