Four very small pieces, 6″ x 6″, acrylic paintings. Continuing on with smaller art due to work space limitations. I am planning on doing some 10″ pieces next as these little guys don’t allow for room to roam.

Studies in Gloom
I currently find myself without a good place to paint. Moving has left things tucked away in boxes and even the garage has no room to roam.
As a result I am choosing to do some smaller works. It is also an opportunity to experiment with similar themes but explore technique and look for unique qualities I find intriguing. BTW this is making me sound like a real optimist, I think when it comes to painting it might be the one place I really feel that way. There is endless potential even if the work disappoints there is still that next piece that might find the magic.
So much typing, it’s like I’m really a blogger! Anyway let me know your thoughts and bare with me in the near future with my small paintings and big hope (yuck).

Reflected lights
This is a large water painting I did. The best part about it is the reflected ceiling lights captured in this photograph. If only it always had intense reflections!
All Four
Four finished paintings. These are all 18″x18″.
Two sky paintings
These two paintings have now been completed. I recently applied a couple coats of varnish and took this photograph in my studio.
Since I am moving these photos may be the last taken in my studio. For the near future I will be without a dedicated work space. I will probably be working on smaller pieces… I must keep working!
Two Finished Paintings
These two paintings were just varnished. Some final studio photography!
Mist on the wall
I put the hardware on this 20″x20″ acrylic painting.
Roam
This is a 10″x10″ acrylic painting. I think I am pretty much finished with this particular painting. Minimalist landscape painting is intriguing to me, I hope to do a lot more work along these lines.
Open Country
I just finished this 16″x16″ mixed media painting. I really like the mood of this particular painting.
