January 5, 2024. I completed a painting last week---a new surrealistic painting for 2024! It is attached and is called “Time Flies.” 16 x 20 inches. Acrylics on a smooth canvas. I plan on showing it in an art show this year. Being a surrealistic composition, people may need a little hint. The clock has three eyes, and there are three candles. They represent Alasdair, Bradford, and Cameron---my children with paws----all now departed. As soon as you adopt a dog into your family---TIME FLIES!

November 19, 2023. I am working on a composition called "Time Flies." After that, I am planning to begin a fall scene using oils on a panel. Finding time for productive sessions in my Studio has been a challenge lately.

October 6, 2023. I am available for commissions. Some of the paintings shown in this gallery were created for clients. I may have a landscape commission to begin just as soon as the fall colors arrive.

May 1, 2023. My painting “Slow Mail” won a blue ribbon at the 2023 Town and Country Amateur Art Show in Champaign, Illinois. The lady who was the judge for the art show wanted to buy my painting, but I declined. I wanted to keep it for a possible art show in 2024.
