Morning Breakfast

Morning Breakfast
Watercolor, 14" x 18" (matted and framed),
$100

Sometimes I paint or draw from life, sometimes from photographs or sketches, or sometimes I create from a combination of the three. For Still-Life art, I cannot resist gathering everyday items, assembling them into little scenes from life, and painting directly from what I see and experience before me. Still-Life, for me, is a portrait of a moment in life.

On the Vine

On the Vine
Watercolor, Image size 10 1/2” x 10 1/4”


I was enjoying a beautiful day at a vineyard in Livermore California few years back and stopped to take a few photographs of some grape clusters growing on the vine. Here is a watercolor inspired by one of the photographs.

Watercolor, 5 1/2"x 8 1/2"

I have been playing around with watercolor lately. Here is one of my birds. 
I enjoy creating random pools and drips of paint.
