See "Flesh and Cloth" paintings LIVE


All five of these paintings are being installed at Atomic Cafe in Beverly, MA today. Be sure to stop in to gaze at them while sipping some delicious fair trade coffee.

Glory hallelujah, it feels good to see them all together :).

Last but Certainly not Least


Before I frame and hang this painting TOMORROW, please critique it for me? Flood my wall, inbox, email, anything. If you see discrepancies, please tell me. Even while I've been staring at this for hours and hours, I can miss a thing or two. I need your eyes!

Thank you, Papa Nenno and nephew Kaleb for modeling for me. This is turning into more than I thought it would.

Number Three: Complete


It is funny how a painting insists on being something other than what you had originally planned. This was a struggle. With the many background makeovers and finicky proportional issues, I am so relieved to say that this painting is ready to be framed.

Time to finish # 4 and start # 5!!!

Murals, Murals, and Art Art Art!



This is a big post.


I am almost done my third hands portrait, started a fourth, and have visions for a fifth.

I also got a new job that came down from Heaven tied with a bow. For this new job (at a new daycare/cafe in town called The Children's Piazza-- check it out!!!) I was asked to paint italian-themed murals on the play area walls. 

Here are some pictures of the finished work, followed by my Hands and Cloth series progress:

A special "Thank you" to my Luke Bowen for posing for this most recent painting.



And thank you all for following!
