Red Queen


Red Queen 5" x 7" --oil-- This was a wedding present for a friend I knew in High School. Specifically, he was in my art class and kind of tortured me for my methods, taste and subject matter. He went on to become a high school art teacher, himself, which shouldn't surprise me. After reconnecting on Facebook, he has encouraged me in many ways, as I developed my skills. He encouraged me to dedicate a space for painting, to switch to oil, to keep going. Although I have had many arguments with him in my mind about many things relating to art,  he has been a great resource and support. I can't wait to meet his new bride.

Where have all the marbles gone?

I honestly am throwing these paintings up here, because I like them, they have sold, and I want a place to quickly show people some things I have done. I have not painted since March, and don't expect to until September. I had a family emergency that has kept me from doing the thing I love. I need to reorganize everything in a way that makes sense to me. Technology makes it hard because it keeps changing. The only thing you can count on, is change.

Cabin Fever

  Cabin Fever 14”x11” oil on stretched canvas. May of 2020. I just really loved painting this. We were in lockdown. The reflection in this teapot has my family, trapped. The heat of it is spewing steam but it’s a happy steam. I liked having my family around me. I missed my friends. Although in some ways it was very trying, Lockdown was, for me, about love.
