"Not all that wander are lost"

Spent a good part of today working on this web site, mostly adding new paintings. More to come in the next couple of weeks as I get new work inventoried. Thanks for visiting!

Well, it has been a year today that I've been working as a full time Artist. Honestly, should have done this about 30 years ago, but I didn't know any better then.  Don't know any better now, I just did so.  Overall, it's been a good year, lots of learning from lots of helpful souls,(thanks to many). Have been working alot on larger paintings in acrylic, looking forward to finding venues to show more of my work. I truly love my job now, yes, there are things on any job one doesn't really enjoy, but I am happy with most of it. I've managed to travel some this year, and made it up to Eastport, Maine, as well as the Outer Banks of NC. Over this last year, I've averaged better than one painting a week, not bad. These are just the ones I liked well enough to inventory, there are others that didn't fare so well, but that's learning.  I look forward this next year to finding more places to show and sell my work as well as maybe a bit more travel.  Hope everyone out there is doing well, I would love to hear from you!  My sincere thanks to all who have supported me this last year, I look forward with anticipation to see what will be.

Hanging out in Eastport, Maine.  Found my way there a couple of weeks ago, and was invited to exhibit in a show. This is my interpretation of the theme of the show "Tiny Islands".  "Mazama's Child" . From Crater Lake N.P., Oregon, Wizard Island.  It's a tiny island in the middle of a rather large volcano.  I don't think I'd live there, but the visit was impressive! If you're out downeast, stop in at the Catbird Seat Gallery, upstairs, 5 Dana Street.  Tell them "Hi" from me. Oh. The exhibit should be open this week. The show's reception is on August 20,2012 around 6 pm.  I can't be there but in spirit.

All kinds of stuff going on in Buffalo for the next week or so. I've a painting at Main(ST) Studios gallery at 515 Main, just down the street from the Hyatt Hotel. Come and see!

Finished some large acrylics, too much fun to be had with large brushes and paint!
