Just Peachy

I borrowed the light from a friend’s studio in Manhattan when I visited her one day about five years ago, when I started this painting. Not that I’ve been working on it for five years ago, just that I started it then, worked on it here and there and finally finished it this week. My friend had extra large, gorgeous peaches set out on the table that overlooked a busy city street. The light falling in the windows reminded me of Vermeer. I thought it was a beautiful studio to work in and bought a small painting of hers on that day for my collection too. Visiting her in her studio was a highlight of a wonderful trip.

I’ll try to get a better photo of this painting later, there is some glare on the image.

Cat on a red blanket

For details and availability about this painting, please click here or on the above image.

This cat looks like it posed for hours in a studio with that dark background but it started out as an image that caught my eye in 2005, a friendly barn cat I had just woken up.

To Sausalito

5 x 7-inches

oil on board

This is an image that stuck with me on my recent trip to San Francisco taking the ferry to Sausalito. This is an oil sketch, I love his green shirt, everything else in this image is up for grabs. Have been thinking of creating a larger painting from this scenario and have already carved out a lot of detail. I think I know my next steps with it. Stay tuned.

Check the online gallery shop to see if this piece is available.
