If you’ve been coming here for a while, you’ll have noticed that there hasn’t been a new post since somewhere around 2016. My math might be off, but that’s somewhere in the vicinity of TOO FREAKING LONG AGO!!!!

So.

A new book has been published that includes many of my drawings and paintings. Coming in at 54 pages, it is a hard-bound book, with the option of either a dust jacket, or a photo-wrapped cover, it’s a perfect coffee table book. The pieces cover the 1970s to the present; many of which are now in private collections and are no longer available for purchase.

Just click on the link below to order your book.

At the door: $15.

Come on down. All new pieces will be shown.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

This week, I have uploaded over ten new pieces to the gallery, reflecting a busy spring. In order to get ready for shows of newer pieces, I have had to put the nose to the grindstone. New works are in the following galleries:

• “Andrea”, in Acuity Portrait Project.
• Over ten new pieces in Landscape Paintings.

Newer pieces will show up in the front of the gallery viewer. Most pieces are for sale.

 
Contact me for purchases, or for commissions.

Three new works in the Galleries this week:

• “Lauren”, in Portrait Drawings.
• “Resting Place”, in Landscape Paintings.
• “Dancing Into Morning”, in Landscape Paintings.

All pieces are for sale.

Well, after a week of wrestling, I finally got the new galleries done. The old galley plug-in didn’t allow me to add new pieces without uploading ALL the pictures in the gallery over again. it also didn’t allow me to sort. The new gallery, ccgallery, allows me to add new items and sort. So, on with the newer technology.

It also has a video and audio feature, so the Musician page has an MP3 player… the old one went away.

Four new paintings in the Landscape Paintings Gallery.

• “Geneva”
• “Perfumed Air”
• “Dreamcatcher”
• “The High Castle”

Items are for sale. Contact me if you are interested in anything in any Gallery that has a price.
