This painting was commissioned as an opening night gift for an actor starring in Jekyll and Hyde at the Bankhead Theatre in California.

​I took some publicity photos of Chris, and created a “vintage” painting, made to resemble a Victorian era theatre poster.

Recently I was delighted to attend the cd release party/concert of the Laurence Hobgood trio, at the famous Green Mill jazz club in Chicago.  Laurence premiered several new numbers from his upcoming album “Honor Thy Fathers”.  A couple of the tunes I really loved were “White Cloud Way” and “Tryptych”.  I combined both of those ideas into this trio of Himalayan paintings.  I’m so happy they’ve found a place in Laurence’s home.

The Wish Project

Recently my dear friend Jamie asked me to paint this little picture for her.  It was in memory of the daughter of her friend.  This young lady had bravely battled cancer for five years. 
I posted the painting, and it seemed to resonate with a lot of folks.  I'd like to do something positive and constructive with it, so I have turned it into a set of greeting cards.  Each set comes with 8 "wish" cards, assembled with love by me.  They will sell for my usual price, with a portion of the proceeds to benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
Send me a message on my contact page, to order your set today.

Birches at Dusk

Here is one of my latest sales.  I spotted this little stand of birch trees one evening, walking home from my studio. It seemed like the last hint of winter. I painted one, and didn’t want to stop, so it become a triptych.  Watercolor, acrylic and ink on paper.
