Pear with blue
Oil on linen panel
6"x6"
SOLD

This started out as a refined, delicate painting but it just didn't want to stay that way. In the end, I liked the monumental, slightly awkward feel of it.

Weather's coming
Oil on linen panel
7"x7"
SOLD

This is another one that's hard to photograph, partially because of the subtlety of detail and also because it looks best when viewed from a distance. That said, I was going after that uncertain moment in nature when you know the weather's changing. Maybe the direction of the wind has shifted or its died down completely but you know weather's coming.

Shimmering sea
Oil on panel
8"x8"
$175

This is a very similar composition to the painting "Beach day" but with a completely different feel. There's some glare in the photo but even without it the yellow area seems to shimmer. Not sure how I did it or if I can do it again but sometimes you just get lucky. All in all, its one of my favorite recent paintings.

Beach day
Oil on canvas
12"x12"
$500

This one is very minimalist but somehow it manages to convey sand and sea and sky. Not sure if it reads as well in the photo. I'm also working on a smaller version but its not ready to post yet.
