Painting 38 - 2025
I was sitting on my back porch reading random posts on social media and everything seemed so negative. We have this old bell attached to an upright of the patio roof. It caught my eye. I saw a story in it and thought I would see if I could repeat it in oil.

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."

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.

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.

Painting 34 - 2024
I was itching to try something new and always liked the thickness and scrapes I saw in works created using palette knives, so I thought I would give it a try. I really like the thickness. It gives the piece a 3D affect. I think I've accomplished my goal. I'll be doing more with palette knives.

Painting 33 - 2024
JoAnne and I took a short trip to the ocean and stayed at this cool old motel. We had an oceanfront room with a large rounded off balcony that I enjoy sitting on each morning. Every day the tractor cleaning the beach came by and added a quiet hum to the sound of the birds, waves crashing in, and breeze through the palm trees.
