| Everett Art Walk
Please join Shari Osti, Susie Howell and myself for the 3rd Saturday Everett art walk this coming Saturday April 21st from 4-7pm. I have my "Flat Fish &France" show up until May 12th. The fish were a lot of fun to paint with their crazy migrating eyes and the Moulin Rouge was just as fun. | | "Flat Fish & France"
"Flat Fish &France" is the title I have given my new show of gouache paintings on brown paper. What do they have in common you ask? Well, first of all they are all painted by me and secondly, I have been inspired by the Morris Graves show I was in at the Rock/Dement Art Space back in 2010 and have created gouache paintings on brown paper since. The flat fish such as flounder, halibut and sole really tickle my funny bone with their migrating eyeball? Now that is an interesting feat of nature. | | Ides of March Art Walk
Yes, it is time once again for the Everett Art Walk this Saturday March 17 from 4-7pm...I don't think we'll have green beer but how about a glass of green wine and cheese? Here's to our lovely weather on this ides of March day...
| | Sleepless Nights
Sometimes in the middle of the night when I can't sleep I think of all the things I should be doing with my artwork. This recently finished painting reminds me of restlessness, feeling edgy and trying to control something that necessarily can't be controlled. Scotsman with His Ponies is inspired by a painting I saw on the Isle of Mull in 2002 at the McLean reunion I attended. | | 3rd Saturday Everett Art Walk
