Fifteen Years at the EFG

I have a painting in the Elliott Fouts Gallery's 15th Anniversary group exhibition — January 4 - February 6, 2014.

Elliott invited me to show my work at his gallery six years ago — and the past six years have been productive and fantastic. After several group and solo exhibitions, it is exciting to have my work at the best gallery in Sacramento.

Work in Progress

I have an exhibition coming up in September in Yountville, California. I've been working on it throughout the summer. Which is usually difficult, considering it's summer. There's a strong force pulling me out of the studio and in to the outdoors.

But I'm happy with the work I've been able to produce. Here's a glimpse at some of the pieces I've been making.

There's a great feature article on the June 2013 issue of American Art Collector Magazine. Just around the corner now, only a few days for my fourth consecutive show at the Elliott Fouts Gallery. Check it out.

More Work in Progress

I'm still working away for my June show at the Elliott Fouts Gallery. Here are a few more images of what I'm working on. I'll share color photos later in May, closer to when the paintings are hanging in the gallery. But I still have work to do before then. Happy spring!

Work in Progress

I've been busy for the last several weeks working toward my next exhibition, at the Elliott Fouts Gallery, in June. Over the years I've documented my progress in the studio in black and white photography.

At one point in my life, I spent a tremendous amount of time in a traditional wet dark room, with an enlarger and rolls and rolls of black and white film. I love the aesthetic of a black and white image. I think they tell a story in a different way, unlike colour images.

I'm deep in the details of painting and love and appreciate every minute I get to do it. Over the coming weeks, you can expect more progress images.

Anna Enquist Book Cover

A painting that I did a few years ago is being used for the cover of a new book published in the Netherlands. The book is an anthology of poetry from Anna Enquist.

A while back I also I had some images used by an Italian book publisher. It's an honour having the images used. I just wish I was able to read the books as they're never in English.

Also, it's been a long while since I have published anything on this blog. I settled in for my long winter painting session. Soon I'll share some progress images of what I've been up to.
