Rose Lightbox
34″ x 45″ acrylic LED light box. This started as a part of a chandelier that was just too big and busy for our entryway (see Iris lamp). I repurposed this one as lightbox. Hanging it in my office led to a commission from a friend for an Iris Lightbox.

Old Green Eyes
34″ x 37″ mixed media. After Street Art images throughout the world. I love street art and have a nice compilation of photos. This is the end result…

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:

Lorikeets
14″ x 23″ (or 23″ x 14″)!! Mixed Media. This is one of my first attempts at taking the skills I developed on larger paintings and applying them to smaller works. The double framing helps a lot – both in accents coloring (like matting) and painting integrity. This color combination really worked, and I gifted it to an Italian…

Night Walk
73″ x 90″. I like big paintings. I’ve always wanted to paint big. My wife and I went to Chicago with some friends and I was blown away by Marc Chagall’s large pieces in The Chicago Institute. I could not get it out of my head. At the same time I really wanted to create the light box effect. This…

Pretty In Pink
I worked on this for several years, starting in 2017 or so. It always seemed pale and a bit washed out. Then Sara suggested a contrasting border. The pink border added 2021 really pops and makes the whole painting work. As usual, the little things really count.

Green Fish Orange Sea
36″ x 48″. Acrylic on wood. I first conceived of this during a business meeting (I know…). I drew elephants and they looked like fish scales. The fish was a natural. Really pops due to the color contrast green fish and orange/yellow background. I owed a friend a favor and he chose this one. Sorry to see it go!
