Happy Thanksgivings 2020!

Many Thanksgivings

To my family, friends, collectors, galleries and museums, THANK YOU! 2020 has been a year of resiliency, reflection, gratitude and silver linings. 

I am uplifted by the support I and so many have received thanks to everyone working to bolster the arts and artists.
To all those diligently working to keep gallery and museum doors open safely, thank you.
I am humbled, by the generosity of all the donors who give back to local museums and who collect art from local artist. 
Together we can do anything! 

“IT’S A FUNNY THING ABOUT LIFE, ONCE YOU BEGIN TO TAKE NOTE OF THE THINGS YOU ARE GRATEFUL FOR, YOU BEGIN TO LOSE SIGHT OF THE THINGS THAT YOU LACK.”

Original Oil Paintings have been selling fast in 2020!
For the first ten years of my painting career I was devoted to mastering, as best I could, painting indirectly in oil on canvas. From Fauve to tonal colorations I found my voice in landscape painting, more often in the portrait of a single tree. I’m pleased that out of a collection of 250 oil paintings on canvas, only 32 remain. A few I have kept in my private collection and the rest I am making available to my collectors. If you are interested in adding to your collection please reach out to me. I love seeing these oil paintings find homes!

Here are a few oil paintings that found homes this fall…

The painting now hangs above this couple’s fireplace mantle as if it was made specifically for their lovely home.
Arles added the perfect final touch!
Thank you for making this so!


It can not be said enough! I am humbled and filled with gratitude for the blessing it is to be an artist and, that there are people like you who enjoy my work and are happy to make it a part of your family!
