Still Life in Red and Green
9x12, oil on linen
I chose an unorthodox composition. It's good to take on a challenge and see what can come of it.

Glass and Gladiolus
12x12, oil on linen
The world seems out of kilter.
Today I just wanted to listen to calming music and paint about
balance.

Breakfast on Main Street
16x20, oil on canvas panel
If you've had breakfast in a diner on Main Street of pretty much any small town in America, this might look familiar to you. Can you almost smell the coffee and bacon?

Pit-fired pottery
Pinch pots made with Raku clay. I applied terra sigillata after bisque firing, then I pit fired them with copper carbonate, salt, cat food, salted string and other colorants. Fed the fire for two hours, then let it burn itself out. The next morning the pit was still smoldering, so the pots were carefully excavated and removed with Raku tongs.

Spring
12x12, oil on linen
It is just too cold here today. I want spring and I want it now.
(Sometimes you just have to make it yourself.)

Morning Meditation
12x9, oil
A little something different today: Different paint (Cobra water miscible oil), different limited palette (magenta, cyan, yellow and white), different brushes (synthetic), different support (natural clear-primed linen panel) and a different approach. Same favorite model though.

Many Stories
16x20, oil
Improbable flowers and perspective are intentional. It's art, not reality. 😏
