Here is my NEW Summer 2015 Show of my Paintings… Please Take a LOOK

Here is my new Summer 2015 show of my paintings. Please visit my art site HERE.

If you’d like to buy a painting contact me. Thanks! I’ll have some of these with me at WILD GOOSE 2015!

The theme of my summer show is transcendent resurrection of the spirit. This revival of hope is open to all– atheist, believer and agnostic. I believe in beauty as the intrinsic truth. Here is my small new contribution to that truth. My muses are my grandchildren, Amanda, Ben, Lucy, Jack and Nora. (Amanda will be with me at WG this year!)

They are the lens through which death loses its sting for me. Painting is my expression of the peace I feel when I’m immersed in the lives I love best. Thank you for taking the time to share these moments with me by looking at my work. I walk from my studio into the garden, pick a flower that was planted by my grandchildren (usually as a bulb the year before) and paint it. Really these are “portraits” of the moments of joy and grace I experience with the gifts of the children near and dear to me. See you at WG!
