All my originals are available for sale through our gallery. I work in three main media, watercolor, oils, & acrylic for completion of all originals. I'm often asked which one I prefer, however, I have no preference of one or another. I feel that certain subjects lend them­selves better to one medium then another. When I decide which to use, it is a matter of which one I feel will best suit my needs to create the image of the finished work, that I can picture in my mind.


Various themes sometimes arrive in my work, which usually are the result of a sudden interest or fascination with a new subject. The most recent interest, one which has been strong for some time now, is that of skies & cloud patterns. Many times I will complete a painting and use very little subject matter in the foreground; I think this is my subconscious giving me an excuse for painting a large area of sky! Watch for these recurring themes in my future works.


The best time for someone interested in seeing a number of new originals at once, is to attend one my gallery shows. Usually held on the third weekends in April and October, these shows provide the public with the opportunity to view recent works, new print releases, and watch me demonstrate some painting techniques.
