The nursery down by Lake Hodges shut down about a year ago. They lost their lease. I thought there might be a painting in this, so I rode my bicycle onto the nursery. Sure enough, I got chased away by a mad farmer in a pickup truck, but not before I could take a picture of this abandoned shed. [...]

A few months ago Chelsea published a photo she had taken on a weekend outing on her Facebook page, titled Top of the World. I took one look at it and saw a painting opportunity. This is the result in 30 by 24 inches. I didn’t ask for her permission to use it. I shamelessly [...]

Here is a post by my friend Naomi Murthy in the Yucatan Times. I read this, looking up in my den/office to see these paintings waiting to be varnished and framed: Notice something? Here is a better picture on my site (even through the lighting is off). Thank you, Naomi, for a great motif.

While blog surfing one day, I came across a nature blog focused on the Appalachian area at Joan’s Nature Journal. There was a photograph of woods in late fall that inspired me to create this painting. It’s a large painting, 4 feet wide and 3 feet high. There is not enough wall space at the [...]

Now that the painting logjam is broken, I am moving right along. Trisha’s sister lives in Mexico on the Yucatan. She took a photograph out of her living room window, which inspired this painting:
