Mona’s Sister
36″ x 32″ Acrylic on Wood. She floats out of the woodwork, if you will. Strong presence. I painted her right after completing Mona Rothco, and Sara’s sister loved it!

The Muses
37″ x 49″ Mixed Media. I worked and worked on this one. Difficult to get the feel of muses out dancing in the meadow after dark. They dance in my dreams on special nights and good things happen.

Under the Sea
18″ x 79″ Diptych. Mixed media. Ocean secrets. Mirrors on the sea foam. Made from our old doors to the dining room in our Vista house. I had a lot of fun with this one. It works pretty well as a banner. See the details below:

Dahlia Still Life
36″ x 30″ mixed media. Playing with bottles. Poured flower petals over a well-developed background. I found out this is a pretty tricky technique! Sara helped conceive the still life look. We own a vase that was a perfect model for this.
