As I explained in my “About” page, I will be blogging about my artistic adventures — experiments, discoveries, mistakes, and successes. Take a look at my gallery; I’ll continue to add to it as I experiment and learn. Some of my paintings are studies from the books below, and some are interpretations from the photography of Mike Petcher. Others are my interpretations of personal photos. Let me know what you think!
