Here are a two recent works that I have in the studio right now:

Kiwis and Strawberries, 10 x 10 inches, oil.

Monday, October 11, 2010



Two new plein air paintings from Point Lobos in Carmel... both are 10 x 10 inches. The day I painted these, the air was a soft 86 degrees, shorts weather in Carmel! It was lovely to be warm and plein air painting at the same time--a rare occurrence.

Figs, 10 x 10 inches, oil.

Still-life is refreshing and relaxing to paint--I love the freedom to simply observe and record, rather than the design, attempt, redo, edit that other types of work I do require.

Tuesday, June 29, 2010

Marsh Colors, 6 x 6 inches, oil, $150.

Lodi Barn, 6 x 6 inches, oil, $150.

Lockford Crossing, 6 x 6 inches, oil, $150.

This show features a juried batch of artists each completed fifty paintings in fifty days. I have finding the project quite fun and rewarding. The most enjoyable part of the process is seeing the wide variety of appraoches that the artists bring to a rigid framework.

If you would like to purchase a work before the opening day, please email me--batch discounts available. I will need to keep the work on hand for opening day, but after the reception you can take it home with you or have me mail it to you.

Quarry Hill Botanical Garden Water Lilies, 10 x 20 inches, pastel.

Just a quick post of one of the paintings that I did during the Sonoma Plein Air Festival last week. I did this painting in the rain--fortunately a knight errant came up to the lake in a golf cart to give my soggy, sorry self a ride back to the parking lot.

The fun never ends--this weekend is the Los Gatos Plein Air Festival. The paintings will be assembled Saturday June 5th from 11:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m. at the Old Town Shopping Center.
