I was playing with texture with this one.  I added a layer of gesso to the canvas with a palette knife before I started, just to add some interest. Then I had fun with these tropical ocean colors against the coming rain clouds.  From a super old reference shot from our honeymoon.  Oil on stretched canvas, 16x20 inches Currently being displayed, up in the shop next month. 

Here's another one of the pieces that will be on display starting TODAY! My show was hung today, and the opening reception is this Friday (March 15, 5-7, details here) Hope to see you there!  Oil on panel, 12x12 inches Contact me for purchase information

You might remember my little gouache study of this piece.  I thought it would be fun to show the gouache version and final oil piece of several paintings side by side in my upcoming show.  Oil on panel, 11x14 inches Contact me for purchase information

Excited to announce that my new show goes up next week! I have so many new pieces to share, in oil and gouache (it will be my first time showing any of my gouache work in public!)  There will be an opening reception Friday, March 15th, from 5-7.  I really hope to see you there! 5049 6th Street, Carpinteria, CA 93013 The show runs from March 11- April 21, so if you can't make it to the opening there's still plenty of time to stop by, and enjoy a beer while you're at it (I recommend the Avocado Honey Ale!)...

Another for the upcoming show.  I've hoarded away about 15 new oil paintings and I'm excited to finally share them!  Oil on panel, 12x24 inches Contact me for purchase
