August Show

I am excitedly painting for the August 2nd Art Festival at the JCC on Long Beach Island, New Jersey.  Painting here in New Jersey, I do most of my work outside and the humidity takes its toll. Sometimes there is wind, bugs, annoying neighbors... It is an adjustment from painting in my studio in Denver but one that keeps me fresh.  There is just no room in the house for my work, especially wet.  Nothing quite done to post but soon.

Dry High Line


My son took a photo looking into the dry canal bed from a walking bridge. The photo inspired me and I got his permission to paint it, though I did go and see the exact location with my own eyes. I recently photographed the same spot all green and flowing with water for future painting but the trees all leafed out hide the trail that you see on the right. I am excited by the idea of painting the same thing differently.

First Acrylic


This is my first acrylic, done on my own with mixed media.
