Vine Ripened

5" x 5" oil on gessoed masonite.  $40, unframed.  Click on profile to email for details.

This natural arrangement worked so well the first time I tried it again with a different background.  I wish I had done one more with them pulled apart, but alas they were too tempting.

Yellow Pepper

5" x 7" oil on gessoed masonite.  $50, unframed.  Click on "profile" to the right and email me for details.

Yes.  Another pepper.   I like to chop them in chunks and use them to shovel up seafood dips and popcorn shrimp salad.  If you don't have time to make your own just add a generous amount of lime zest to the ready-made.  Then squeeze the juice all over, mix up, eat. 

 

Abstract Series

I like to paint abstracts because the process makes me think of color in a totally different way.  It's palpable.  It's telling a story without any help.  It's solo.

Horizon # 1

6 3/4" x 6 1/2" oil on gessoed board.  $50, unframed.   Click on "my profile" on the right to email me for details.

 

Horizon # 2

5" x 7" oil on gessoed board.  $40, unframed.

 

Horizon # 3

6 1/4" x 6 1/2" oil on gessoed board. $40, unframed.

I always hesitate to say what I see in my own abstract art because I don't want to interfere with what you may find in it.  However, these paintings remind me so much of my cyber-pal, Rance, and his photos of the northern lights.   You may see something totally different.

Thanks for looking.

Yellow Slices

4" x 6" oil on gessoed masonite.  $40, unframed.

My love affair with the peppers continues.  I think it will be a long time before I get tired of painting peppers.  There is so much to learn from each encounter.  That, and they don't rot too fast. 

Afternoon on Kimberly #1

4" x 6" oil on gessoed masonite  $50, unframed.  To purchase, email me for details.

Driving down Kimberly Ave. in the fall is one of life's small pleasures.  Some days I try to make more than one circuit, going at different times of the day to experience the changing light.  There will be more in this series.

Thanks for looking.

Curve on the Blue Ridge

This painting is 5" x 5" oil on gessoed masonite.  Ger and I were driving up to Mt. Mitchell and stopping along the way to take pictures.  Please note the beautiful frame he made.  He says this picture goes into his "private collection".
