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.

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.

I took art classes in High School all four years, and went on to be hobby painter for many years, while having other adventures. One of those adventures was the birth of my daughter, Delaney. She is on the spect...

Cliff 30"x 40"  This painting is about the edge we all find ourselves perched on. Green is simultaneously about money, which has put us here, but also about growth, which is what is needed, for us to survive this mess.
