After the Rain

This painting is done with oil paints on a 12x12 gallery wrapped canvas. It is my interpretation of what the world looks like after a rain.. everything is sort of blurry and shimmering with colors, and new light bursting out of the sky. This painting was SOLD from my Etsy shop and is in private collection in Seattle, WA.

Dark Heart

This painting is an abstract oil painting done with a palette knife and multiple layers and colors. It is based on the lessons of Artist/Teacher and friend, John Robert Jurisich (the father of prismatics) John advised me that I should make more sweeping motions to get more of a star-burst effect with this technique, but I ended up painting with more cutting motions because it seemed to be the emotional direction of this painting at the time, and so I call it Dark Heart. I was incredibly honored when John told me there is something special about my work that he wanted to foster and offered to give me private painting lessons, but I haven't been able to make it out to California. My favorite quote of John is "Through art we can change this world we all live in!" This oil painting is made on a 12x12 gallery wrapped canvas and is available for purchase in my Etsy shop.

Sunflower Heart

This is a playful painting of a bright sunflower heart. I should mention that most of my paintings are made while listening to music and this painting was inspired by Stevie Wonder's "The Secret Life of Plants" album and the song entitled, "A Seed's a Star" and so I had the idea to add little green stars (symbolizing renewal) to the center of this sunflower. It is painted on a 12x12 gallery wrapped canvas. This painting SOLD from my Etsy shop to a private collector in Texas.

Moulin Rouge

This is an acrylic painting of a beautiful Moulin Rouge sunflower heart. I think these blood red flowers are so beautiful, and usually people don't think of sunflowers as being dark red in color, but as unique as they are they do beautify the earth with their existence. This painting is done on a 12x12 gallery wrapped canvas and is in a private collection in Texas.
