Wild Strawberry

Strawberries, it turns out, are a hoot to paint. Smushing the thick paint down to recreate the juicy red flesh was pretty fun.

Finger Foods

While continuing my quick still life studies, no more than a handful of hours spent on each, I decided to extend my subject matter to the kitchen pantry. Grape Tomatoes & Olive are both a wee 4 by 4 inches.

Southern Snow

Snow in the South is wonderful. It has a kind of magic and mystery that it has nowhere else. And the reason for this is that it comes to people in the South not as the grim, unyielding tenant of Winter's keep, but as a strange and wild visitor from the secret North. - that's a poem, sillies.

Having moved from New York to Georgia at the onset of winter I witnessed snow's magic first hand. Georgia was wrapped up in a slushy blanket of snow and sleet that hushed the fiery state with oohs and awws of child like amazement. It also allowed me ample time to paint.

The J. Peterman Look

I recently applied for an illustration gig with The J. Peterman Company. Yep thats right, the catalog. Cause I'm classy. This led to an interesting discovery. I only paint clothing when it's on people and even then I prefer to paint nudes. So I sat down for a couple hours and did that which had not been done before. I painted random articles of clothing.

Frosting goes to Day Camp!

Me and Brina decided to get weird with some frosting for our friend Danielle's Birthday! Brina covered hers in beads which then inspired me to cover mine in a pair of old jeans! Oh so 80's you are all jealous!!!
