Happy New Year: 2024 reflections

Wishing you and yours a healthy, happy, joyful holiday season.

As the seasons change and the year draws to a close, I’m sharing a few examples from a new body of paintings. I’ve been reviewing stacks of drawings, selecting my favorites, then translating them into acrylic paintings. It’s an intoxicating experience. There are a mix of imagined and observed scenes, various mystery and adventure themes.

*All these work are available. Please email me for details.*

As this year draws to a close, I am reminded drawing is the center, where so much work and ideas start. So in that spirit, I'm sharing several examples from 2024. 

 

If you ever wonder what artists are doing at given time, there is a good chance it's drawing.
