I'm often asked if I own the objects in my still life paintings.  The answer is YES!  
I paint from life, so I set up my the compositions in the studio.  This is just a part 
of my collection of wonderful stuff!

"The To-Do List"

Oil on Linen         "The To-Do List"        14x24


 This weekend in Aspen, Colorado I will be debuting this painting and several more in the series.  They are based on vintage pinup paintings.  I am using a technique called "tromp l' loeil, which means "fool the eye."  Come and see us at the Aspen Art Festival held in Wagner Park, July 23-24.  

SOLD!  Check out the website for more paintings!

A Couple of Gems

Here are a couple of new paintings. I think they are real gems!

"Fruit Cup with Pears" is a beautiful china cup with pears and rasberries. Wonderful colors and textures! 12"x12" framed in a Roma moulding.


"Egg Drop Soup" also incorporates a beautiful china bowl and with eggs. Couldn't resist the fun with the egg drop!

Apple Cobbler



This painting "Apple Cobbler" sold off the easel. All of the cobbler tools and the apple peeler had great textures and patinas. I set up the actual objects and paint from life. You can see the setup and painting process going on at the Celebration of Fine Art. www.celebrateart.com
