"Jackson Street"


20x20" oil on canvas - sold
Studio Gallery, San Francisco

It's been a crazy week of painting and framing! This is the last of the paintings for "City Streets" which opens this week at the Studio Gallery. The reception is Sunday April 28, 2-6pm. 

Next I'll be working on some larger paintings for a solo show which opens mid May. I plan to post paintings and details in the coming weeks.

"Kiwis"


8x8" oil on masonite - sold
Studio Gallery, San Francisco

Here's another from the "Delicious" show. I liked the idea of doing a simple arrangement of fruit with a light colored creamy background. This is a larger version of an earlier painting.

"Orange Wedges"


8x8" oil on masonite - sold

Here's another from the the "Delicious" show. I did a smaller version of this a while ago and thought I'd see if it would work a bit larger.

I did several more experimental messy paintings this morning but I probably won't be posting them. They served their purpose by helping me come to the conclusion that the changes I'm looking for aren't in the way I paint so much as in how I think. 

I'm beginning work on paintings for "City Streets" which starts in April at the Studio Gallery. I plan to paint smaller panels, 12x12" and under. I'm looking forward to this show, it's a fun challenge finding new approaches to painting SF.
