London Fog (8x10)
The background of this image was painted last week. I had to wait for it to dry to add the lamp posts. It's a continuation of my experimentation with light.

Winter Glow (11x14)
It's harder to paint light than you'd think! Real light is far brighter than the whitest white oil paint, but it sure is fun to try. This almost makes me want to go frolic in the snow one last time before summer arrives.

Go Fly A Kite
I think I was inspired by the desire to explore a sense of motion. This image has a decidedly bright summer feel to it. Bring on the joy!

Fire!
I made this (8x10) Campfire painting as part of an ongoing experiment with light. This photo reflected a bit of sheen from the wet paint, but I think the warmth of the image comes off well. It reminds me of fond camp memories as a child, singing songs. You can almost hear him playing Blackbird, can't you?
