Hill at Saint Paul School


Silver Lake Nursery, Liberty Road

This is the first landscape I ever painted. I think it looks a bit fuzzy.

Under the Lamp

This is a study I did of Eduoard Vuillard's "Under the Lamp". I muted the bright yellow that he originally used. (I believe the wattage wasn't so strong back then.) He is definitely one of my favorite painters.

Teacup Still Life


If one looks at my still lifes there are a lot of objects that I am always interesting in painting. Most of the work is very small. I think this one is 4.5x5.5 inches or so.

Old Sneaker Ad

I have this wonderful poster and did my version of it. This painting is not very big.

Still Life lamp and bottle


This still life has a couple of older paintings in the background that were a pleasure to paint twice.

Still Life with Grand Dame

I think this photo is an actual size of this painting. It's tiny.

Hilden Water Bottles with Fish Bank





Hilden and Faygo with Juice Glass

I made this one a couple of years ago for someone and never gave it to them because after I painted it I learned that they didn't like Faygo. Oh well.

All American Selection Garden at Cylburn

This is a view of the selection garden at Cylburn which had such a rich array of flowers and colors compared to the surrounding trees.

Old man without a shirt

This model had one of the most fascinating farmer's tans I've ever seen.

Wyman Park Dell

I know this blog says paintings but I thought it would be nice to mix in some pastels.

BWI Observatory


This is a painting that I did at the BWI observatory field. I was trying to investigate the sky through glazing.
