  • Time Is Precious

    It’s funny how we humans view time and how we waste it.   This journey and time are precious.  Are you aware about time?  As i enter my 70’s I’m much more aware of the breeze coming through the window and the aroma of newly cut grass.  I’m grateful for all my faculties to be…

  • A Fun Time

    April 10th I was the host of a fun Yelp Elite event. Made more so by the Scottsdale Gallery Association Bone Appetit Art Walk afterward. Lindsey D. was the ringmaster of this pampered pooch event with many attendees bringing their doggie friends. Sprinkles made cute doggie cupcakes for the 4 legged attendees and made more…

  • Knowing Who You Are

    It’s amazing to me how many artists come into my studio/gallery and when I ask if they are an artist many say well sort of. If you are a sort of anything does anything work for you? Many people are envious because I have owned my artist self and I can live my dream but…

  • Chaos into Peace

    I don’t know about you but as I get older change is a little harder.  To have peace I have to embrace the change.  So after stomach churning and grumpiness I am now at peace. The chaos is ego driven because I’m in my comfort zone and I think the change will be bad for ME.…

  • Artists go Gently

    Unless it is about money,  artists go gently into the world seeking truth.   Believing in a higher calling, we use imagination and determination to work.  Striving for excellence to tell who we are as part of the human experience.  I now work in series to tell a story of growth.   One painting is part…

  • Evolution of a Painting

  • Transformation

That is truly transforming into loving yourself and others. This painting is called “Released”.  It means released from negativity and…

  • Pursuing Excellence

    Just watched a movie about Winslow Homer.   A famous artist from the 1850’s to 1909 who made wonderful paintings of life and daily living. He was  an advanced thinker of social change.   Homer loved depicting women and children and the landscape.   He went from tight wonderful paintings to full of life loose…

  • America, Where Art Thou?

    I’m grateful to live in this country and I don’t like it when people tear it down and insist that we’ve got to change the Constitution to fit their their own self interests.  This country is changing so much and by trampling on the Constitution we won’t recognize it.  It is heading toward an un-United…

  • The Lightbulb Is On

    There is a story about Monet who is sitting in his Garden.  His neighbor sees him and says, “I seeing you are resting ,  Claude”.  Monet replies, “No I’m working”.  Two weeks later his neighbor sees him at his easel and says, “Oh Claude,  I see you are working”.   Monet says,  “No I’m resting”.…
