New to Key West

Jag gallery at 1075 Duval St. in Key West is currently showing the popular Poolside show. My piece “A Private Dip” was selected for the show. What a great excuse to go to Key West!

2019 Plein Air Competition in Delray

For this year’s Plein Air event in Delray Beach, I was happy to have my long-time artist friend, Margie Homan join me in Florida. For the practice day, it rained, and I managed to paint a street scene from the trunk of our car! … And ended up selling it too! Margie made a very lovely painting as well.

Thankfully, the day of the competition was beautifully sunny. Here are my entries for this year’s one-day competition.

Something New to the Table

Spring Mix Spinach Salad Garden Salad Fruit and Nut Salad

There will be a dozen of my new small 2014 flower paintings soon at the DVAC gift gallery. But this year, I’m bringing something new to the table – Salad! I wanted to study greens closely so I could be better prepared in landscape painting. The fact that this still life project is leafy and  very temporary is also an added bonus.
