Sweet Home Chicagp

It isn't my home town, but it is sweet! And, Chicago is someone's home. Anyway, I have walked by the view I painted many times. And, each time it took my breath away. The view at night is particularly copelling with the reflections from the lights on the water. I hope that my painting captures the awe I experienced and takes your breath away.

Fantasy Art

I like fantasy art. It allows me to explore sides of myself that I wouldn't normally. My newest painting, called Forest Ballerina, depicts a ballerina dancing in the woods, with sparkles glowing around her. Fantasy art usually contains angels or fairies with a background of a lake, forest, or sky. Usually, the background colors are muted or dark to enhance a glowing effect of the foreground image. Certainly, there are lots of variations on this theme. I do enjoy creating fantasy art. I do hope you enjoy Forest Ballerina.

Hall of Languages - Syracuse University

This is a painting of the Hall of Languages at Syracuse University. It is the oldest academic building on campus. The building is castle-like and along provides all with a unique panoramic view. I took a few classes in that building, and as luck would have it, they were on the top floor. The view from the inside looking out is nearly as spectacular as the view from the outside looking at the Hall of Languages. I do hope you like this painting...creating it brought back fond memories of life as an SU student.

I can't do it, I just paint it!

I can't skateboard, but I can paint a skatboarder! I think this watercolor captures the fun of this sport. You can try it...um, I mean u can try painting one yourself. But, if you are atheletic, you can try skateboarding. I am not an MD, but I can draw one if you need one!

Seattle

Seattle is one of my favorite American cities. When I picture it in my mind, it is as a vibrant, energized city. This may be contrary to some of you who envision it as a gray, rain-soaked place. But, to me, it is full of life, color and electricity. I do hope you like my painting simply titled "Seattle".
