Fuchsia. 60”x36” acrylic on canvas.

Painting of pink and white fuchsia on a mottled background of reds, yellows, and blue green. The structure of the flower is in counterpoint to the randomness of the background.

Another of my Organic series. In this painting I discovered the magic of translucency where movement in the flower comes from the irregularities in the background. #art #artshare #fineart #painting #floralart #hibiscus #artist

Roses. Our melting world and one of the most beautiful species on the planet. Plus white flowers are hard to paint. White isn’t really white. #fineart #art #artshare #artist #floral #roses

Calla Lilies. Further exploration of chaos and structure. The background reminds me of a nebula. The complexity and beauty of both the cosmos and our planet occupy my thoughts while painting this series. That and how we’re f’n it up. #art #fineart #artshare #floralart

Bachelor Botton. When I was younger I wanted to be a botanical illustrator but I’m just not anal enough. This is a close as I get. 😊 Another in my Organic series where I’m exploring randomness and structure. 48”x48” acrylic on canvas. #art #artshare #fineart

Another of my Organic series paintings. The background speaks of the cosmic chaos that made us and the amazing plant life on earth. Randomness and structure.

More new work for the upcoming showcase. I never thought I’d enjoy painting small paintings but I am having so much fun in the studio! I actually feel freer painting small abstracts than the large laid-back realist works. Who knew? 😃

I will be showing new work at the showcase next week in Pioneer Square. Come down and see it (and me!) in person. There’s a lot of new stuff coming out of the studio these days. Yay!

I will be part off this showcase. Drop by if you can to see me and some of my work. There will also be custom, handmade silk charmeuse scarves based on my floral paints that can be ordered and other items for sale. New works as well

This is the first painting in my Organic series where I’m exploring the creation (as in the Big Bang) and climate change. The fire from which we came, the complexity of our world, and the fading of both.

This painting was quite the journey. What it started out as and what it ended up being, are very different. An adventure for sure.

I’m moving off of Meta socials and will be sharing my work here. Hello Bluesky!!! I’m a fan of facts.

This is my painting entitled “White Iris.” It’s part of my “Organics” series where I am exploring the complexities of our beautiful world
