“Sunset” is a large, cheerful, brightly colored abstract painting. It reminds me of a sunset, but others have had different interpretations. I always enjoy hearing what others think of my paintings. Title: Sunset Media: Acrylic paint and ink Size: 24 x 24 inches, on 1-1/2-inch deep gallery-wrapped canvas

Summer Fun
A hot summer day, the flowers creating a riot of heat and color. That’s this painting. This painting is painted with acrylic paints and inks on paper, which is then mounted on a 1-1/2 inch deep gallery wrapped canvas. The edges are painted black. It is 8 x 8 inches square, and is signed on […]
Frost Birds
Now, here are Frost Birds as I’d envisioned them in my photo session during the Polar Vortex. The abstract background colors, tiny bits of white in motion. Simple but very satisfying. 12 x 12 inches acrylic paint and paper, on paper, attached to canvas
Polar Vortex 2
Another painting inspired by the Polar Vortex of 2014. (I can’t help it. I love the name!) Again, trees backlit by the sun. The scene was inspired by photos I took from my dining room windows on January 7, 2014. 12 x 12 inches acrylic paint on paper, attached to canvas
Polar Vortex 1
The Polar Vortex in early January 2014 provided plenty of inspiration for a series of paintings. During the inclement weather, I took photos of the frost coating my dining room windows. Though I’d planned to use the frost as inspiration, the landscape itself became the source for this painting. It’s very dark, as the trees […]
Hillside
A brisk abstract painting with a landscape influence, it feels much like an unruly hillside with the sun coming up over the ridge. 12 x 12 inches Acrylic paint on canvas
Dusk
The light at the end of the day as the colors cool down, shadows deepen, and twilight settles in. That’s what this painting reminds me of. 8 x 8 inches, acrylic paint and ink on paper. Mounted on 1-1/2 inch deep gallery wrapped canvas. It can hang on a wall, or stand on a shelf. […]
Two Imaginary Landscapes
I’ve had the urge to paint landscapes lately. Why? I have no idea. I’ve never painted landscapes, not really. My paintings are often inspired by nature – by the colors, flowers, change of seasons – but not usually by landscapes per se. Still, the notion to try landscape-y type paintings has been nudging me, so […]
Dancing in the Spring
“Dancing In The Spring” reminds me of the joy of early spring mornings, warm breezes, and new grass underfoot. But, as usual, I’m open to suggestions and wonder what it reminds you of. This painting is 12×12 inches, acrylic paint and ink on paper, mounted on a deep canvas.
November
“November” is the second painting in a series that began with an imaginary image that I couldn’t quite put my finger on but couldn’t quite identify. The first version is a small, 4×6 inch sketch. This second version is closest to the original image in my head. It is 12×12 inches, painted with acrylic paints […]
