Dusk

This scene is along the south end of the beach at Howard Park a couple of months ago. It was painted mostly plein air but I didn't finish it up until recently in the studio. I had some fun with the colors and values and now I like the atmospheric feel of it. This painting is currently in the S&M exhibit at the Dunedin Fine Art Center.

Garden Dreams

I set up this still-life and painted it as a demo for my Soft Pastels class at the Pasco Art Center. I love the Art Center - it's in an old cracker-style house behind the Centennial Library in Holiday FL. I've been teaching there for a little over a year now and will doing demos there tomorrow (Sat. Feb. 19) during the open house and reception for the current exhibit. This place is a little haven for the arts and has various classes, a gallery and a really cool gift shop. Come on over and check it out tomorrow - or any time! Visit their website for current information and directions: www.pascoart.org --------------------------------

Beach Cove

I painted this little piece a few months ago along Howard Beach in Tarpon Springs. I've been very lax about photographing my work - and posting it to the blog - but am resolved to get on top of this. So today I photographed many recent paintings and plan to start getting them posted regularly.
