Painting 40 - 2025
I've never used a maulstick. Instead I paint strategically to allow my hand to lightly touch the canvas when working on fine details in my typical paintings. That's an issue when I want to jump around. I have to step away to allow things to dry. That's when I like to experiment with palette knives and quick and thick pieces like this.

Painting 39 - 2025
I love the atmosphere of downtown Cincinnati and regularly venture down with camera in hand. I tend to be drawn to the simple things in life that often go unnoticed... like this small operation ready to serve someone passing by with an appetite. Cincinnati rocks!

Painting 38 - 2025
I was sitting on my back patio reading random posts on social media. Everything just seemed so negative. I looked up from my phone and this old bell attached to an upright of the patio roof caught my eye. I saw a story in it and thought I would put it on canvas.

Painting 37 - 2025
I've always said all of my paintings contain a story. This particular one holds a bunch. One of the stories it holds is about always challenging myself to do better in many facets of my life. Like Michael said... "Take a look at yourself and make that CHANGE."

Painting 36 - 2025
My second experiment using palette knives... and a minor touch of thick brush. I do these quick, between drying breaks on my other pieces.
This cool farm was located across the street from an old client and I always admired it.

Painting 35 - 2025
Early autumn in Cincinnati is about perfect. The sun angle and changing colors of the foliage make for great photos. That was the case early fall 2024 when I traveled about the city looking for the right shot. I ended up across the river in KY, where I captured this riverboat traveling up the Ohio past Mount Adams and Riverside Drive.
