About The Artist

My photo
Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States
Hello! I am a fine arts painter, with a BFA from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago. My primary painting medium is oil and alkyd, and mostly I work in a representational style. My greatest challenge as a painter is to capture the effect of light; and my greatest joy as a painter is to accomplish that. Many thanks to those readers who have been following this blog since Day 1 (May 19, 2008). To those who are visiting for the first time today...Welcome, and thanks for dropping by!

Studio Tangerines



Tangerines, 2011
Original Painting: oil, alkyd
on 5" x 7" canvas panel unframed
SOLD
Since there are still nice, ripe tangerines on the tree outside, I picked a few more for this studio still life painting.

 I used the same palette of colors that I chose for my last painting ("Frostbitten") and again painted from direct observation. However, this time the image is infused with lots of light, giving the painting a completely different feel.
Thanks for taking a look. Enjoy your week.
