"You Talkin' To Me?"

6"x8"; oil on canvas panel; $125 USD

This is the first of a new series I'm starting based on photos I took from a recent weekend at the Delaware shore. There were so many different types and sizes of seagulls and they were so used to people you could practically walk right up to them and they would just pose for you! So I ended up with a lot of seagull photos...hence the new series ;)

Lotus

11" x 14" oil on canvas. $295 USD

Cathedral Rock

16"x20" oil on canvas; $650 USD

Hopping from rock to rock I made my way out to the center of the creek to capture this scene with my camera while on vacation last year in Sedona, AZ. This is Cathedral Rock...supposedly one of several "vortex" areas around Sedona. I have to admit the atmosphere is so peaceful here, although I didn't personally feel any tingling type of energy which many people claim to experience around this site. What a perfect place to hike and commune with nature!

July + August . . .

Wow, it's been two months since my last post! In that time my whole kitchen was torn out and remodeled. It's fantastic to have all new everything...it's like living in a new house. I'm just finishing up painting the entire downstairs (~ 800 sq ft) plus the ceiling.

Besides that I've been the featured artist for the month of August at a local framing gallery (see photos below)...

I also was working on restoring an old chair for a "CHAIR-ity" auction coming up in October...
