Welcome!

Thank you for visiting my blog! I'm excited to have a venue to visit about art, share with you what's new off the easel and tell you about upcoming shows.

My recent Signore Greve show at Snow City cafe at 4th and L was a huge success! Signore Greve was a character I created on a bike trip through Italy. I took a photo of an Italian man in a business suit straddling his basket adorned bike as he chatted with a friend. I was so charmed with that image and the spirit of Italy it embodied that I couldn't help but translate that into paint. Greve's dog Celli was patterned on a smaller version of my hound dog Beezil. He is a world traveler and loves to take you on virtual trips. I created 16 paintings for the show and left with only 2! People seem to love Greve's energy and style and really seem to connect with him. There is no better compliment! My goal this summer is to start a children's book featuring Signore Greve and Celli. Keep checking the blog for progress.

I have included a photo from a piece I just finished. I haven't come up with a name for it yet so your comments and suggestions are welcome.

My April show is going to be extra special. Check back for the details!

Have an art filled day!
