Stay Awhile

An acrylic painting done in the glaze style, many layers of transparent paint layered to create depth and a surface quality unique in color.

Shell Fragment

Shell fragment, one of five shell paintings from a series I did in 1996. I liked the colors found in nature, the peach and pink and grays. Very pretty and canvas made these paintings soft in texture.

Shell Fragment

This painting is about 18 x 18 inches. It is painted on canvas and I've used glazing and dry brush to get a transparent effect and for a solidity, or opacity.

Cat's Cradle

 This painting has been donated to Orcas Island
Artsmith, a nonprofit artist venue for writers and visual artist. It is acrylic on paper.

Two Birds

After I moved to Bellingham, my nephew died. At the memorial, his widow picked the song Three Little Birds. Three feathers appeared on the back porch. Later that summer I painted this painting, Two Birds.

Everything is Changing

This is a painting done on hot pressed paper. The paper has a gloss to it and it holds the paint on top. It gives the piece a more painterly appearance.
