Love You ForeverWatercolor 30X22This is a portrait honoring the memory of our two 16 year old Whippet girls, Evian and Elenae, seen here with my son, Ian. Their unconditional love was both inspiration and guidance for our family and we will always cherish them.
Little WeaverWatercolor 15 x 11This is a young Thai mountain child. Her culture dresses her in finery, part of which are the gold rings around her neck, designating her age. She weaves to earn her keep. As she grows older, her spine will weaken and the gold rings supporting her elongated neck will become necessary for her survival.
Los Ojos InnocentesWatercolor 11x15This is a little Mexican girl on the beach, enjoying the day. Her eyes captivated me as only innocence can.
Corrozones InnocentesWatercolor 15x11These two little Mexican girls were so obviously connected and their energy was so loving, innocent hearts.
Applewatercolor 15 x 11I named this one Apple because this little baby's head was just as round as an apple and she was the apple of her Grandfather's eye.
JawsWatercolor 11x15Being a student of art, I often wonder when I see mythical creature, what the inspiration for their appearance came from. Then I saw this Chinese man sitting on the back of this creature and though, ah! jaws!
Sea GypsyWatercolor 11x15This is a little Thai Sea Gypsy. She was born, will live, work, marry, have children and die her on a boat. I found her eyes as captivating as she is captivated.
Good Plice Fo YouWatercolor 22X30I painted this after visiting a Chinese antique market in Shanghai. I kept hearing, "Good Plice Fo You, Good Plice Fo You!"
Fitting InWatercolor 22x30Again in the Shanghai Antique Market, it is just so overwhelming, there are so many beautiful things to see. It just feels like everything is crowding in to get your attention.
No Safe PlaceWatercolor 22x15This is a painting of my daughter's door when she was living in Manhattan. The only thing I could think of when I looked at it was that I am never safe from what is going on in my head, no matter how many locks on the door.
LostWatercolor 22x15This was a period in my life when I truly felt lost. I sat on my floor wallowing in sadness and thought, perhaps if I could paint this feeling I could let go of it.
Study In RedWatercolor 22x30I painted the rear end of this Porsche for my son's new office, but it rapidly became something I didn't expect - a study in red.
Magic MoonWatercolor 15x22Magic Moon is a homeless woman in LA who lives just off Sunset Boulevard. Her amazing, introspective beauty struck me when I saw a photo of her taken by my friend John Santo.
Canadian CowboyWatercolor 15x22This is my friend Rick. Hasn't he got the greatest smile!
ChoicesWatercolor 15x30This young, Native American man has done two tours of Iraq in the Army - along with six of his other brothers. He is a graffiti artist and a most gentle and intelligent soul. I named this one Choices because not only does it look like he is in a state of contemplation, but do we chose to judge him for appearance or his contributions?
