New Class, New Work, New Show!
Starting in January 2012, I'll be joining the faculty at the Triton Museum of Art, teaching 'Beginning Oil Painting' for adults, and young adults. I am really excited about this class! We will have great fun and cover a lot of ground while discovering the joy and beauty of oil paint. See Winter Session Class Schedule for a class description and registration information.
New Work in the Los Gatos Museums Gallery: I have several new paintings on display, including California plein air work, and a painting from my new Calfornia coastline series!
Upcoming Solo Show: Graniterock Design Center in Cupertino, CA., has invited me to show my work in their gorgeous design center from January 3, 2012 through May 7, 2012. On display will be new paintings from my California coastline series. Stay tuned for more information regarding opening reception!

"Art in the Garden" definitely an affair not to miss!
What a great event and wonderful experience it was! I'm not sure which was more fun - painting and hanging out at Yamagami's or sipping wine and viewing the end results - beautiful paintings by the five contributing artists. Either way, I have to say the event was a big success.
Both the Triton Museum of Art and Yamagami's Garden Center went out of their way to make this a beautiful and inviting event. Delicious appetizers, wine, beer and the most gorgeous and healthy plants in the valley - what more could you want!

Last week I had the great fortune to paint at Rocky Point, just off hwy 1 in Big Sur, California. The weather was perfect - no wind, cool temperature and just enough overcast in the sky to let me see colors clearly without the need for an umbrella. (Which, btw, recently broke on me when the wind picked up my easel and sent everything flying, including my pallette and turps...)
Anyway, back to Rocky Point, where I firmly planted myself between car and hill and had the best seat in the house! Out of this session came 2 paintings that I am offering at auction, see links below. I hope you enjoy the paintings.

Happy Birthday America!
When the suns shines bright, and the tomatoes are plump, you know it's summertime! And sometimes there's nothing better to eat than a home grown tomato picked straight from the vine with an added dash of salt.
In celebration of our country's birthday, I am putting up for auction this original oil painting of a home grown tomato with a starting bid of .99!! - You - the bidder - will determine final price.
If this proves to be as fun as auctions can be, I'll list more small originals in the auction format.
Happy 4th everyone ~
