Never mind the part about the virgins, I think Herrick’s famous poem could have been about painters. If I didn’t paint them […]

They’re tough. So when I got a request to paint them again, I was a wee bit hesitant. I’m glad I went for it though as I found this particular oyster painting […]
“Picnic Prep” 20×20, oil on canvas This is another commissioned piece, one I put off and put off doing, then finally started. As I was painting, I wondered why I’d put it off. It was fun. I might still add a few strokes here or there. I think I captured more movement in the girl on […]
Untitled, 12×12, oil on canvas. The best thing about daily painting is no matter how you feel one day, the next is full of possibility. This is a scene from my neighborhood where the golf course backs up to the river. Can you see the little golf course flag? I did it weeks ago […]

“Ocean View” 10×10, oil on canvas. Day 32’s painting is a commissioned piece. I’ve been struggling lately but this one gave me a little bit of peace. I’m leaving on a two day work trip today so I frantically tried to get day 33 and 34 finished without much success. Today’s image reminds me that […]

I’m amazed at how New Orleans gets to people. “About fifteen years ago, I lived in […]

I didn’t use the exact same photo as a reference. In the photo I […]
“Where Ya Headed?” 22×30, oil on canvas, $325 Click to Purchase SOLD My art supply order finally arrived today! But it wasn’t until after I’d been painting for a while. Given the low supplies, I dug through a stack in the corner and pulled out this old painting from about four years ago. Four years […]
