An abstracted and bit surreal painting in the studio. Some of the subtleties of the mark making are lost in static images so I posted a video today.
The summer solstice, hang onto this light.

The Shadowland March 29th – April 27th
The Shadow Land
I invite you to step into The Shadow Land, my solo exhibition where I explore the
emotional landscapes of psychological isolation, beauty, and dreams. Through my
latest paintings, I aim to create a space where light and shadow come together,
revealing the delicate tension between solitude and the quiet beauty that resides
within. In these paintings, dreams are not just a form of escape, but a way of engaging
with the deeper recesses of the self.
The Shadow Land is not just an exhibition for me; it’s a personal journey I share with
you, inviting you to explore the emotional depths of the human experience. In the
quietest moments, we often find the most profound beauty.
These are just a few of the 15 featured new paintings in the show!
Travelers
This small surreal piece is part of my upcoming show “The Shadowland”. The exhibit opens tomorrow at Haven Gallery!
Beacon
A new painting in the studio. This one is a contender for my upcoming solo exhibit at Haven Gallery in Northport, New York. The show starts late in March, I am fully focused.
Signals
A new painting that will be part of my upcoming solo show at Haven Gallery! The show is called “The Shadowland” and runs from March 29th – April27th.
I am still painting like mad for the show. I have plenty of work in the studio but aiming to put together a very strong and cohesive collection.
The Autopilot
I did a small quick painting of this idea a little while back. It appealed to me so I decided to paint this larger more refined version. Something a bit different from my landscape work, I dig it.
Bloom
An unusual new painting now that Christmas is over. This one might be part of my upcoming show at Haven Gallery. The show opens the end of March, much 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.
Ascend to Dream (TBT)
This surreal dreamscape is framed and available through RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon.
Late Times (revisit)
This emotional landscape is available through RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon. I have found these dramatic and surreal paintings as an amazing emotional release from the endless anxiety.
