Reflections


Reflections
14x11 oil on canvas
This is the first blog I've written in a while since I've been busy catching up on some painting. I usually prefer painting landscapes and architecture, but lately I've been doing some still life pieces. "Reflections" was completed recently.

Maggie Valley


Maggie Valley
8x10 oil on canvas

Just returned from another great trip through the southeast! One of the most beautiful spots we discovered in Maggie Valley, North Carolina was a quaint little place called Jonathan Creek Inn, complete with a rushing stream right behind it. After spending one night there, I got up early the next morning to paint this view of the water. You can purchase this painting by clicking here. Free shipping in continental U.S,

 If you're the Granbury, TX area Memorial Day weekend, plan to visit the following art shows:

Lake Granbury Art Association Spring Festival of Art. Click here for details.

Some of my art will be on exhibit and for sale at both of these shows

Upcoming Shows

I haven't blogged for a while since I've been busy trying to get ready for several upcoming shows in the next few months. This weekend, in conjunction with the annual Granbury Design on Wine wine walk, Shanley House Center for the Artsis hosting a wine-themed art show and sale. The show will run through May 20th. For more information, contact the Granbury Visitor's Center at 817 573-5548. Since I love beautiful landscapes, I thought "Tuscan Vineyards" was perfect for the show.

Throughout the month of May, I will be the featured artist in a solo show at the Granbury, TX Visitor's Center. A small collection of my art will be exhibited. "Ephesus Steps" is one of the pieces in the show. Again, you may call the Granbury Visitor's Center for directions and hours open.

Also, the Lake Granbury Art Associationwill host its annual Spring Show from May 25-June 17 at the Shanley House Center for the Arts. Go to their website for futher information. This is a great opportunity to view and purchase some wonderful art. Since my piece is still a work in progress, you can see it by attending the show.

Finally, the Pecan Plantation Art Guild will be hosting its Spring Art Exhibit from May 25-28 at the Tarleton Langdon Center Concert Hall. Again, you may view one of my new pieces at this show. Click here for details and directions.

Tuscan Vineyard in Autumn


Tuscan Vineyard in Autumn
16"x20" oil on canvas

Another beautiful view of Tuscan vineyards. I combined a couple of photos I took while driving through Tuscany. Every time we reached the top of a hill, it looked like a postcard! This painting will be on exhibit in the Design on Wine Art Show in April & May in Granbury. You may purchase this piece at the show or later on line ( if it's still available!)

Near Neuschwanstein Castle, Germany


Near Neuschwanstein Castle, Germany
8"x10" oil on canvas
"Near Neuschwanstein Castle" is yet another beautiful example of the fall foliage in Germany. I viewed this scene from above the river near Neuschwanstein. The fog hovering over the distant mountains and river gave it a surreal appearance. You may purchase this piece by clicking here.
