SOLD

Submittted this to the Art on the Avenue in Houston.  Lucky for me
that's it's found a home.  I'm taking my own photos and wondering
if it's the way I should go.  Seems the colors in the original are a 
little more intense.  Maybe I'll just practice!

Living in Houston and driving to Galveston 50 million times
in my life, the oil and gas industry is part of the scenery.  I've come to love it -
all the angles and complicated lines.  Of course, this is simplified so it
won't cause you 'circuit overload'!

For some reason, I'm having fun with this whimsy and fun.
Imagination abounds and I see this in a sophisticated living area to add
some unexpected snap or maybe even a childrens' room.
So not serious!

Another horizontal but this time more realistic.  I didn't 
really intend it that way, but you know how these things
happen...sometimes it's hard to stop!

I must like to do a lot of pondering women.  After all,
they have so much to think about, don't you agree?

I did a similar painting  featuring a ferris wheel  awhile ago and
donated it to a charity auction set up for the victims of the Haiti earthquake 
through Laura Rathe Gallery.  Donations of my art to
philanthropic organizations is how I give back.  I loved this
ferris wheel because it denotes fun and whimsy to me.  
I named it 'Coney Island', changed it to 'Santa Monica', but since
it could really be anywhere, I changed it once again.  I love
the title, because isn't that where we all want to be?

Well, here I go again - adding another 'style' to my repatoire.
Seems as though I just like to paint a lot of different things 
in a lot of different ways.  This is fun, though, because it can
be a total abstract or it can be given life as something realistic.

I originally did this in oil pastel, but it didn't 'pop' like I wanted it to.
Somehow these sections and a fun background emerged 
and it made me think they might be dancing.  Giving life to
these rotund pears!

in this medium.  I feel as though I have a lot of control when using these
and it's scribbly fun!
