Posted "Bello-Lucido-Elegante". I could go-on-and-on about how wonderful this painting was to do. I have known this couple for years so it was my honor and pleasure to get this commission. This gal has a class and elegance that is in a league of it's own.

On my easel now... a wicked sexy Canadian aye! Wait till you see this beauty

Finally posted "Sonar Solar". This was the painting I did while in Cabo San Lucas Mexico. I LOVE painting in exotic locations. I enjoy the company of wonderful, wonderful people... hands down the very best part of getting out.

We have a winner to the "American Woman" hidden meaning challenge (wow, that makes it sound like there was an obstacle course and water hazards). Go to the Brilliance Gallery for the answer.

Posted "American Woman" and laid down the gauntlet for a challenge to anyone that thinks they can figure out the hidden meaning. Find out more in the "Brilliance" gallery. I will also be posting a wonderful painting titled "Sonar Solar" very soon so check back. Next up is an amazing beauty in Chicago

I Posted another painting in the Traditional Gallery "Father and Son". The feedback from this painting really made me stop and take a breath. I mention over and over why I love portrait painting and the feedback that I received on this simply couldn't capture my love for it any better. Long after we are all gone someone will know that this Father and Son had this moment, pride, happiness, and moment of bonding.

Up next, a new "Brilliance" painting that will grab you with conviction.

Happy New Year... ahh the chaos of the lovely holidays has left me thinking I should be working on a means by which to clone myself. I have added five wonderful paintings of an incredible Lotus Elise cleverly named... "Elise" to the Traditional gallery. These paintings were a blast to paint. I will also be adding another painting very soon to the Traditional gallery and will soon be starting two Brilliance portraits... stay tuned!

Added "La Pantera" to the Brilliance gallery. Very sexy gaze, check it out. OOOOH CAAAAA-na-da...

September 16 2007

Added "Saint Lucia Sunrise" and "Garden Gate" to the Traditional gallery. Both were created for an annual United Way auction. Aside from personally donating to the Woman's Safe-House via the United Way, I also am currently donating paintings for the art auction annually.

Added new painting "Amor" to the Brilliance gallery. This was an adventure, read more about it by clicking on the thumbnail, but safe to say that this painting has traveled through countless US states before finally finding it's home in Venezuela.

I met the most amazing artist a few weeks ago, Natalie Blake. Had the pleasure of hanging with her and discussing every imaginable topic over drinks and a good storm.You can see her wonderful ceramic work at www.natalieblake.com (I might add that she is a wonderful singer as well). She lives in Vermont, USA but changes lives all around the world.

Added an additional painting..."Temptation" (in the Traditional gallery) along with a couple others I failed to mention previously, "Goddess and the Champion" and "Jamie" (in the Brilliance gallery). Check back often, I have a tendency of adding and removing paintings with frequency. Also, please feel free to leave me your feedback if there is something in particular you would like to see added or if there are elements you just plain don't care for.

I added some information regarding care, maintenance, and protecting your painting. Visit the Information page for details.

I'm typing to the ambient sounds of Maxi-Priest and fireworks (I live out where fireworks are still legal... and where no-one has ever heard of Maxi-Priest). Welcome to my web-page! My developer has done a fabulous job with little to no direction from me, and hit the mark. Leave me feedback, requests, good, bad, it's all welcome. I typically spend computer time in the evenings then retreat to painting from 11:00p.m until about 3:30 or 4:00a.m CST. Sleep is a rare treat. Weather permitting, I live outside on the deck while home and try to go camping every few weeks (keeps the spirit in alignment). I often bring the laptop and work on compositions while camping but I'm sure it's the fact that I'm hearing a different symphony of tree frogs that makes me feel like I'm "away from it all". Well, the canvas beckons, I'll leave you with words borrowed time and time again... Oh baby,baby it's a wild world...LOVE Maxi's version.
