Reflections of the Lake

This painting won second place in the Finger Lakes Plein Air Community Paint Out. 
 It was painted on the north end of Canandaigua Lake.  I had two hours to complete the painting on a very windy day!

Honey and Melon

Honey, melon, and what else? Are we waiting for a recipe, or do we create one?
Painting and cooking are similar.

Golden Hue

This is a mixed media collage. It takes on different golden hues depending on the angle of the viewer. It has a mysterious quality.

Ambient Harmony

Spring Softness was my inspiration for this oil painting. Using a limited palette, I created an abstract impressionistic landscape. I like the way the painting has a watercolor feeling to it.

Violeta {mini}

This is a mixed media abstract oil landscape on yupo paper.
 I have been experimenting with oil paint on paper. 
I like that you can easily wipe out color creating interesting effects.

Awakening

It's amazing how the natural world wakes up in spring. By taking time to observe all the wonders of the season we perk up and gain new energy. It is through this energy that we gain the ability to truly "Awaken".
