"Missing You" oil 24 x 18

It was one of those early Fall days wet claggy and humid. My son began drawing on the windows. I loved the way you could see bits of the Creek through the wiped condensation. Gradually the wiped areas dripped and began to mist over.Very Inspiring!

"Angel in the Mist" oil 24 x 18'' Great Egret SOLD

Sorry I have been very naughty and haven't posted any paintings for ages. Here's a few to make up for my absence.
I love Autumn mists that seem to dance across the water as the sun rises. I watched a mixed group of herons and egrets feeding in the early morning with the mist rising around them. It was quite beautiful.

Great Blue Heron 18 x 8''oil

I completely forgot about this Heron painting. He's my favorite subject. He's always in the Creek opposite our house. I like to sneak up on him occasionally... This is the result.

Ocean Majesty oil 24 x 48''

Another Ocean painting. I wanted to show the power of the wave as it crashes towards the beach. I chose to focus on the water rather than the birds in this painting.

Willet in surf oil 24 x 18

Marabou Stork in flight. 36 x 24'' oil

I painted this one a couple of times. The first was meticulously drawn out and looked stiff so I repainted it without drawing and it felt much better.

Peacock in Flight 36 x 60'' oil

Well It's taken a while, but finally I have finished my Peacock. It will become the center piece for my upcoming one man show at the Academy Art Museum in Easton. Now I have to frame the thing....Arghhhh!
