I do enjoy commission work...maybe because I haven't had anyone not like what I've done...yet : )   I get somewhat anxious doing them but what I've done to fix that is tell the buyer that if they don't like it they don't have to buy it. This applies to anything but portraits or very personally specific paintings for obvious reasons. I can sell abstracts to other customers so it's no big deal if they don't like it. I just got a commission from a customer the other day for an abstract and I'm looking forward to doing it because I haven't done an abstract in the last few paintings. 

You're making me jealous talking about how pretty Ireland is. I haven't been to Europe yet and there's a bunch of places I'm dying to see. 

You know what else I haven't done? Paint on location. It's something I've been wanting to do but I just haven't done it yet. One part of me thinks it would be a hassle bringing what I need (and probably forgetting something in the process). And the other part of me wouldn't want someone watching over my shoulder while I paint. Does that bother you? I don't like when anyone watches me paint or sees a painting not done. I'm probably just being a wuss and should just do it.

Hello stranger, thanks for noticing : )

I've never been to Ireland but I've seen pictures and the landscape there is breathtaking. It's definitely on my list of places to visit. I've heard the locals there are really nice too.

This was a commission for a customer who is Irish and has visited Ireland a number of times. The scene is one of his favorite places in Ireland. Some hillside there. He gave me a picture to work from. This is two 36" x 48" canvases, and as usual, I used acrylics. Since I had to paint this thing as one unit and the two canvases together were way too large for my easel or indoor workspace, I had to paint it out in my garage. There was no blood or tears, but definitely a lot of sweat - IT'S A SAUNA OUT THERE!

Your mailbox was full so I'm posting here:

I've been wanting to add textural elements to some pieces too. I've got a little stash of odds and ends I've saved. Not sure where to utilize them yet.

12 x 12 is a good format - not too overwhelming. I'm sure I'll catch the results in the gallery soon...20 pages in.

Looks like you've been busy again!  Love the new gutsy colors and simple elemental designs.  The titles beg for more explanation, but, perhaps its better left mysterious!

Do let me know how your summer goes, did you work on the new studio?

I'm an upcoming sophmore.


Do you teach a certain aspect of art or is it all generalized??

you are so much better than I am at staying current with this site...i love seeing all the new work that you're doing...your luscious landscapes bring to mind the images of wolf kahn though your soft focus has a feeling all your own. Since I hadn't seen your abstracts before they are just making my eyes so very happy.


I'll have to be a bit more diligent about signing on so I can keep up!
