Looking Back at my Past Work

Spring Again, below: Oil on canvas. 6 panels 48"x48" each, framed in furniture grade oak and hung in 3 sections in the Georgia Center, UGA campus, purchased in 2000. It makes a 180º view and visually opens up
the hallway between the hotel lobby and the banquet hall.

South Rim, above, 1995, 36x60", One of my all time best.
Nocturne,
oil and sand on canvas, 18x14", 1996
This painting very successfully uses the sand. I was able to scumble just hitting the high spots on the water to give it that glitter when the wind is blowing very gently. It also seems to help articulate a gradient.

This was one of many paintings I donated to the ArtCare AIDS benefit auction in Atlanta over the years.
Sawscape,
Oil on a saw blade, 20", this was done along with another 7 ft. blade and 3 portraits of grandchildren on commission to pay for backhoe work and remodelling my kichen. I find that I enjoy a project of this type as it stretches me to do something I wouldn't ordinarily do and I learn a lot from the experience.
Evening,
1989 16x20" a magical moment.
Tinscape I,
1990, 30x36" one of a few paintings done on rusty tin gathered from a dilapidated chicken house. I simply let the the rust stains show me an image and I picked it out and clarified it with paint.
Atlanta Tampa,
1986-87 tryptich, 36x60" one of 7 paintings commissioned by June Anderson for the Tampa Airport. This is a sample of my geometric phase where I merged the landscape and spatial information with the glitter of a pattern that would split it into different times of day.
