Come see me this weekend if you’re in the Pasadena area. I’ll be bringing more than 40 original oil paintings and watercolors, plus some prints and cards. The park is shady so don’t let the weather keep you away! If you love art you won’t want to miss this once a year event!

“Strength is Beautiful” 15 x 22 watercolor
Yesterday I got the very good news that this painting (and an oil painting landscape, which I will post soon) has been accepted into the next California Art Club show at the Women’s City Club in Pasadena. The show will run for six months beginning […]

Spring Medley - 11 x 15 - mixed media
SOLD
Here’s a painting that combines both watercolor and acrylic - one for its transparency, the other for its opacity - each used to its best advantage (in my opinion!)
It was inspired by a photo I took at the Anza Borrego State Park in N. San Diego County […]

“Swift Water - Eaton Canyon”
15 x 22 watercolor on paper
Well, today was the day from computer hell. Once in a very long time my Mac system gets corrupted and I need to reinstall system. However it got balky it now seems resolved. I painted this yesterday but didn’t have time to put any finishing […]

“Return to the Poppy Patch” 9 x 12 watercolor
It’s another walk around the Arlington street poppy garden, but this time in a more decorative, somewhat abstract mood. I abandoned any attempt to be realistic and considered the landscape as a decorative tapestry, with different colors and textures woven through. With some […]

“Poppy Garden” - approx 9 x 12 watercolor
Tuesday afternoon I had the opportunity to join my friend Wendee for some sketching and painting in a nearby garden that is filled with billows of California poppies. Do you detect a seasonal theme here? I didn’t have time for a big painting but I wanted to do […]

Fun Zone - 20″ x 22″ - watercolor on paper
Well, I didn’t think it could happen two years in a row, and with such different styles and subject matter, but, happily, it did. I just got my notification in the mail that this painting has been accepted to the 2008 […]

“Listen Up” - watercolor on paper 5 x 7
OK, so this is the final fourth of four shows I’ve got work in right now. In addition to the Verdugo Hills Small Image show, the California Art Club “Arroyo Seco” show at the Pas. library and the “Artists of the Canyon” show at […]

A Spring Walk - 9 x 12 - watercolor sketch
This one is a little bit from real life, and a little bit from imagination. I embellished the wildflower strewn meadows just a tad beyond reality, but if you don’t tell, I won’t.
Ah, springtime. Our peach tree is in bloom, magnolias are covered […]
