Jolie

This is a portrait of my daughter Jolie. Yes her hair is really like that. Actually now it's even worse, some nine years later. For me this image totally captures her personality. From the little smirk to the death stare to the crazy hair, this is Jolie.

Ideal


This is a painting I did in college. It's still my favorite. Even though my daughter has drawn on it with crayons and it's warped and scratched up, it will probably always be my favorite. I call it Ideal. It's approximately 5ft by 3ft. Oil on luan. And no it's not for sale, never.

Multiscape





This is by far the largest painting I have done. So far, anyway. It is over 6 1/2 ft long and 2 1/2 ft tall.


It's not for sale because it belongs to my mother. I painted it especially for her kitchen. It started out as one large beach-scape, with seagulls and seashells. After a few years of that, I decided I could make it much more interesting. I was looking at a lot of comic books and really liked the way the images were laid out. So I applied the idea to landscapes. I love the way it turned out.


This painting was in a show called BIG. It was all works over 6 ft. One young man attending the reception took one look and said, "Now that's good." I consider that to be better than an award.


As I mentioned, this painting is not for sale. However, I do have plans to make giclee prints of it, one day. Because of the size, it will be costly to get a high quality image taken. But it is most definitely on my list. I love this painting so much, I feel I must share it with many people. Sorry mom.
