Jellyfish!



This is the progress of the top painting from my last post. There's definitely been some changes since then. I've always liked jellyfish but never thought of putting one in a painting until now. For some reason I've been looking them up online a lot. These beautiful creatures are simple and very mysterious.

In the studio


This is what's happening in the studio right now. I'm working on three 36x36 canvases. I really love this size. My landscapes are starting to take a direction that's more abstract. I am having a great time exploring the possibilities during the process. I am finally letting go of some mental baggage that has held me back from "just doing it". Funny as it seems, It can actually be a bitch doing so. I think many artists can agree. Anyway, this is where they are now. We'll see where they go.

oh yeah, the red on the bottom piece is more burnt sienna than red and the color is a bit washed out. whatever, you get the idea.........

New Landscapes



Here are two new landscapes. They're 22x28 acrylic on canvas. More will be coming soon. These aren't the best quality images, but you get the idea.

Sunday


I've been a bit lazy with posting new stuff. Here's a sketch I did this morning of some awesome orange Tiger Lillies we have sitting on our coffee table.
