Church in Southern France

This is a painting I did in a small, beautiful village in Southern France, and the other photo shows where I stood to paint the study for this painting.

Last Light

I painted this sunset of Galveston, and at the very end, painted the bird and its reflection. When the sun would find its way through the clouds, it was like a brilliant flash of light.

Colors of The Sun


Sunsets have always been one of my favorite things to paint. Some are soft, subdued colors. Others, like this one at Galveston, show the more vibrant colors of some sunsets. I had a great time painting this one, and was very sad when it was lost in Hurricane Ike.

Thinking of You


It is a very nice feeling to paint different members of my family and my friends. This one, from an old photo of my mother, is one of my favorites - she was a true romantic and drew this heart in the sand, a young girl in love (with my father)!
