And another favorite...

..part imagination, part Kim's garden put together. I love the color in her yard. Just moved the Sound a little closer.....

Nights in Rodanthe

Did a large (30x40) painting of the house in Rodanthe where the movie was filmed. It has been moved recently, as the ocean came much too close.

Virginia paintings

More of Kim's garden and a trip through Virginia

Just love Kim's garden. This is one of her "container gardens". The title is "Petunias and gaura".
On a trip to a college reunion, I went through Virginia and the other two paintings were a result. It was a beautiful time to travel through that lovely state.

A delicate balance

I have a special love for waterlilies and paint them often. Here is the latest painting, currently at Gallery 5800 in Richmond. It is 16x20, oil on linen.

Beyond the cotton fields

Saw this beautiful scene one morning when I was out looking for something else. Sometimes the best things happen that way. It was down the road from me, near Ware Creek. First I did a small study and then a 24x30.

Winter on the Outer Banks

Went to Pea Island right before Christmas, stopping at Coquina Beach on the way there and at the Wildlife Refuge early on the morning I left. It was beautiful, and the egrets were everywhere, the colors clear and crisp. Here are two of the paintings that resulted from my stay.
