This painting is an adapted view from my back yard, 

This painting is painted on cradled wood.   These are a real pain in the butt to make, but I really like the feel of painting on wood, plus they look really nice.  I cut and sand the wood(Masonite),cut and build a frame from 1 1/2 in wood strips.  Then I glue the wood to the frame.   Gesso and sand it 3 times, hey I'm ready to paint. It looks like gallery wrap except it's all wood.

Okay, so I probably caught you off guard with this one, it is quite a bit different compared to some of my work.  It's a painting I did a few year ago when I was doing a lot of musical themed painting. But it's still a funny painting.

I have been selling only original paintings for the past 10 years, but alas the economy has forced me to start making prints again.  I have been going at it with a vengence.  I have come out with over 30 prints this past year.

In the past my abstracts have been highly structured with a lot of distinct geometric shapes.

I am now painting in a little bit looser style with a lot more variety of colors. More to come.

This painting is painted on wood. These rectangular shapes remind me of my Grandmothers quilts. My brother and I stayed with her during the summer, and she had us help her tie the knots between the patterns.

This is my new obsession painting on Wood, it is extremely time consuming but I really enjoy painting on the flat dry surface. I have to cut the wood,then make into a frame. Cut masonite and nail it to the frame,fill the nail holes,then sand. I then have to apply 4 coats of Gesso and sand in between each coat. By this time I probably could have painted 3 paintings.
It is much drier than canvas and because the surface is flat the paint flattens out when you apply it. So you are seeing a lot more brush strokes which is what I like about it.

Just got back from a show in Paducah, Kentucky, it was a hot weekend. It was a 3 day show and it when until 8 pm. I have been laying around like a zoombie for 2 days. Imagine working 50 hours in 3 days. It's a glamorous job and someone has to do it. The floods didn't hurt Paducah, but they said the water was 5 feet up on the flood wall. There were Fema signs everywhere telling people they could apply for aid if they had damage.
