For all of my clients and collectors who have been
asking for new acrylic and ink paintings - it's time!

I was trying to think of something new and interesting
to do for 2014, and something that would REALLY be a challenge for me.

I really love painting in oils, they are my passion.
BUT - I miss my lines sometimes.
Lines are tedious and time consuming for me - thus the challenge.

What better way to really create a new challenge for myself 
than go back to the beginning?

Artists always like to keep moving forward, trying new things and not becoming stale in their creativity. 
I have been painting in oils for so long that I often wonder
if my old school style paintings would be any different from the past.
I guess we will find out!


Here's a sampling of Old School Retro:










I hope you will all be as excited as I am to begin this journey.

The Way It Works:

 - I paint the paintings
 - you watch online
 - If you see a painting you like, you call or email with your info
- If no one else wants that painting on opening night, it's yours
 - If two or more want the same painting, we do a drawing
 - We pick your name, the painting is yours 

So, it doesn't matter where you are, you can still buy a painting!
