This was my first painting. It was a bit of a joke. We needed something big to go over the fireplace in Florida. The painting is 8 feet tall and 42 inches wide. I am good at sky and sea! Maybe I'll do another ...
I thought the scene of a rainy day in NYC would be
an interesting piece. The umbrellas, bright raincoats and taxi cabs were
all inspiring.
This one is a bit of a laugh. I wanted to use up the canvas from the big one (above). This is 48 inches wide by 18 inches tall. If you imagine a bit you can see the city and the boats moored near dusk.
Dante's Inferno could have inspired this, but it was
really an impressive photograph from the web showing a forest fire as
well as a similar piece of art I saw somewhere else. This one is small
too.
One afternoon ... when you look from Longboat Key over
towards Sarasota, this is what you may see.
Spiral in color. This was a play with color after I did another in black and white. I find the spiral an exciting and intriguing mathematical formulation - even better in living color. Done in Winter 2005 in Florida.
