Auto Shop













This scene is right across the street from my studio, and I have been admiring it for years now. I finally painted it in the nick of time, as they have moved out and the building will soon be gone, to make way for a greenway. I am happy to have recorded it in its glory, and will miss all the interesting cars that came through there.

Big Moth




















Another bug painting! I've enjoyed doing these and friend gave me this beautiful moth, called a polyphemus. The image is actually life size, as the moth was so big. This is oil on gessoed paper.

Fairview View















Here's a scene from Fairview that I started last summer and revisited several times until I was finally happy with the results. I played with the intensity of colors and altered the brushstrokes to really make it come alive.

Biltmore Bridge











Here is a painting I did recently on location at the Biltmore Estate. I am really happy with the freshness of it, and the vitality of color. I love working on location, and the Biltmore is a great place to paint outside.
