I am finishing up several new paintings for Open Studios Art Tour 2016 here in October. On the easel and almost complete, ‘Interlude II’ soft pastel on paper. Come visit me and my newest paintings, the first and third weekends in October here at my home studio from 11 am to 5 pm. It will be fun! Address: 471 Larch Lane, Santa Cruz, Ca. 95062

I really like the gallery presentation and am so happy to have my original paintings as well as giclee prints represented and on display.

We made it to the gallery in Canon Beach, Oregon. The owner was so lovely and her gallery really has a beautiful selection of original art.

As the story goes, when a storm is coming a cow will see it and will run from the storm, therefore having the storm chase it. However a buffalo will face the storm, taking it head on, therefore moving through the storm more quickly. That is what my client told me as he asked me to paint this custom painting. I really enjoyed this process of creation. I had been to Yellowstone Park the previous year and had such a visceral memory of the mighty buffalo. They are so amazing and beautiful to see in person. I am happy to say that my client loves his painting! It truly represents his life and facing the challenges that come his way. A metaphor we can all relate to.
