Today I spent most of my studio time working on a large piece and at the end of the day here, I was inspired by this stormy Kauai beach study. I kept the brush strokes loose to capture the fluidity of the moment.

I noticed these wild looking bananas during a garden walk on Maui. The magenta bougainvillea was just as wild, as if it was competing with the bananas.

It was late in the day in San Diego and then all of a sudden the rain clouds came in and the sky started to darken to these dramatic blues, purples, oranges and reds. This particular 50s style track house with it's mature king palms struck me as interesting.

This is the front garden grounds of the Santa Barbara Court House. I'm typically a painter who enjoys detail. This little painting definitely has a lot packed into it but my goal was to create an impression for a larger painting that I will do at a later date.

This painting really has more of a turquoise blue background versus the slightly greyish blue that I see on my monitor. Anyway, I love flamingos and and they are really fun to both watch and paint!

This painting is a study for a very large commission. I will offer it on eBay this weekend. I have the beginnings of pneumonia and have been talking it easy, considering a busy artist's schedule but will be back up and running soon.
Though I have sold still lifes and music paintings in galleries, for the last several years I have devoted my larger works to palm and tropical scenes. Commissions of special memories are fun to do. This painting commission is a wedding memory for a very special family!

Life as a painter takes me all over, be it for new source material, galleries or art shows. One of the fun aspects about making a living as a painter is being able to experience new places. This brings a lot of inspiration to my work.

Birds of Paradise are a South African plant and are among my favorite subjects to paint. Each flower is so full of personality and it's easy to see why they would be likened to birds. This bird of paradise is hiding behind a leaf as if it's just carefully taking a peek around.

The flowers of giant birds of paradise are often over looked. I have several large giant bird of paradises on either side of the entry way to my home studio. Their large leaves are stunning and if one looks carefully enough, the blue and white flowers can be seen peering out from their hiding spaces.

I have a passion for palm trees. Living in California, I have grown up around palms and appreciate their graceful gestures. Though it does not grow in California, the coconut palm is a symbol for the good life. This is just a moment in time for this beautiful tree.
