We had this little house in our backyard when we lived in Seattle and it always had the best cozy feel at night with all the lights turned up. I love small buildings!
Big Red has moved on to a farm with 25 hens and one happy camper. I hear he is doing a great job of protecting them from eagles. He has glorious colors!
Big name for a small painting. I know. This is from a forest near me in Agren park and one day during soccer practice the sun just burst through the tall trees changing all the light around the area. It was spectacular. It really warrants a large canvas. Maybe soon.
I am an artist living on an island in the pacific Northwest. For the past year I having been painting exclusively in oils, mostly on board but also some canvas. For a few years prior to this, I painted furniture with acrylics in a style reminiscent of art from Oaxaca, Mexico. For many , many years before that, I was a professional french horn player. Life circumstances made me choose to put my instrument down permanently and this blog is evidence of my creative spirit coming out in different form. I love the practice of daily painting and after all the years in classical music, daily practice feels essential to art as much as it did to music.
All paintings are sold unframed with an option for framing.
