This is a painting of the Chrysler Building (NYC) during a pretty heavy rain. What drew me to this, aside from it being the Chrysler Building, was the light shining on, off and through all of those water droplets. It looked  a lot like fire. This painting is on view at Principle Gallery through December 2017, during the Small Works Exhibit.

This is a painting of that moment of gathering, when the previous wave is starting to go out and the new wave is coming in. It is that place in time just before everything breaks loose.

I paint one of these every few years, if for no other reason than to chronicle the aging process. I also grew this cool beard since the last one. Proof positive that artists never grow up, we just get older.

This is the beautiful neon creation (to call it a sign would not do it justice) outside Seattle's Dahlia Lounge. Unfortunately, painting is a somewhat static medium so it did not allow me to show you how the fish's tail wags. You'll just have to trust me on this. On our trip out there last summer we were graciously treated to dinner here by my cousin Dave and his wife Sue and daughter Anna. We had the most wonderful meal and even better evening.

This is a building at the corner of 25th Street and Broadway in NYC. It was painted from a photograph that I took last Fall. For months I kept looking at the picture trying to figure out how to make it work as a painting. Finally I asked myself, what specifically I liked about it? I decided to zoom in on the most interesting part, the Copper Facade and the shadows from the building across the street.

This is what I saw outside my window at school today. I can't say it enough, great year for clouds.

This is a painting that was started in the Autumn of 2011 as a demonstration piece at the Washington County Museum of Fine Arts, in Hagerstown, Maryland. Those familiar with the Museum will notice the reflection of the atrium roof in the bowl.
