"Frostie"


16x12" oil on canvas panel

This stuff can't be good for you but it sure looks cool. This was painted from an image shot at the Toy Boat Cafe in SF by my daughter Emma. I handed her the camera and she shot a bunch of pictures. When I downloaded the images later this one really stood out.

"Cold Drinks" - SOLD


8x6" oil on hardboard

Here's another one from the Toy Boat Cafe. If you're ever in SF you should certainly stop here for coffee, ice cream or dessert. The atmosphere is wonderful and the staff is really friendly. It's sort of like visiting an antique toy museum, there are hundreds of old and unusual toys decorating the walls and shelves.

"Dessert Case" - SOLD


6x8" oil on hardboard

This was done from a photograph my daughter took at the Toy Boat Cafe on Clement Street in SF. I handed her the camera and let her shoot away. It was fun to watch how into it she was. When I downloaded the photos this one jumped out at me. It has a unique sort of light, a greenish glow that for some reason I find appealing.
