Rarely do I go back into a painting after it is finished in an alla prima sitting, but this one bugged me in a few areas.. I took out the suggestion of a heron and illuminated the sky and toned down the clouds a bit more. I am very pleased with Everglades Sunset now....

Catching Up!




After a long absence of posting here, it is time to catch up! I have been well and painting full time with some exciting things finishing out 2013 and new ones beginning for 2014. My first year showing with the Lyman Eyer Gallery in Provincetown, Massachusetts had a very good season. I am now preparing to be in a Two Man Show at Lyman Eyer in July 2014.. Much work to be done! I was also honored to be the featured artist in the November Issue of the online magazine HIM. Below is a link to the interview I did with Andy Fields...

I was also honored to have my painting Dry 2013 used in the European magazine Narcissus as the illustration for an article on narcissism in art/. The premise of the feature written by Simon O'Corra is that when self portraits are well done by artists and photographers, they are indeed not narcissism, but naturalism! A very valid  and appreciated point of view, from my perspective...


Lots more paintings to post in the coming weeks so I hope you will once again follow my updates.  Thank so much for reading and your patience....
