Daydreaming - SOLD

8x16
oil on canvas

There is something about looking up through the trees and seeing the sun filter through that harks back to childhood.  I can't be the only one who spent hours and hours in the summer laying in the grass, watching the clouds, listening to the insects, and squinting up at the leaves until they sparkled like stars in my blurred reality.

Passing Time

6x6
oil on panel

I did a very large version of this several weeks ago ("Force of Nature") and used up the leftover paint on my palette to paint this little one-- just finally getting it posted.

A Pair of Pears: Take Two

6x6
oil on panel

Here's a second version of the pears-- this time done more loosely.  And the title can be interpreted more than one way, which is always fun.

Last Impressions

18x24
oil on canvas

I've posted videos of the progress on this painting and "Force of Nature" on Youtube. Here are the links: Last Impressions Force of Nature

I've been feeling good as the number of "times watched" goes up on these, so when I came across this quote, I had to laugh:

"Most people are semi-content to be loved by their mates, pets, family, or whatever. Artists want to be loved by everyone, everywhere, for the rest of time. Sheesh." (Jerry Saltz)

So true. So please watch my videos. :-) Thank you!
