"Truckin"

4 x 4"
oil on masonite
sold

From the outskirts of a little Alabama town called Guntersville - frankly a place I would move to if I won the lottery. Big lake, state park and a slower pace it seems. As for trucks, I have this desire to paint them - largely due to the influence of William Wray's work.

"Cricket Hour"

6 x 6"
oil on masonite
sold

This is one of my favorite subjects to paint small. Someone's home tucked into their own little world. This little Georgia house was nestled in the hardwoods - with the heavy, hazy, evening sky above. It's that time of day when the relief from the hot sun starts to set in and the crickets take over the quiet. It's quintessential Georgia in the summertime.

also...... I have new copies of all five volumes of my 'painting a day' books reordered, including a new book of my alphabet series - they should arrive by the end of the week. As soon as they land here, I'll make them available.

"The Perfect Place"

5 x 7"

We all have an idea of our dream home - I tend to have more than a dozen - but when I spotted this farmhouse, I immediately thought this is the perfect place. Tucked back off a small road that came off of several small roads, this slice of heaven sat quiet and cozy. It was surrounded by hardwoods and ponds and outbuildings that would make the ideal studio. Oh......I was dreaming alright.
