When my family moved to a new neighborhood in Indiana when I was 12, there was another family who moved in close to our house, and they were from New York. During my teenage years, I became friends with their son who was the same age as me, and every year they would go vacationContinue reading “Rehoboth Beach Delaware Painting”

Pour Over Coffee Painting
The pour over is an excellent way of making coffee for those that like to do things by hand (such as yours truly), given the process of pouring the water at just the right speed over the coffee grinds! I make myself one of these just about every single morning. I’ve read that a glassContinue reading “Pour Over Coffee Painting”

A Carefree Painting of a Day at the Beach in Cádiz Spain
This painting was inspired by a day at the beach, many years ago, in Cádiz, Spain. During these days of frigid cold and people fearfully wearing masks everywhere (by mandate, I would add, at least where I live), it almost seems like a fantasy dream-world to reflect back upon.

This oil painting is of a narrow winding park in my neighborhood, through which a creek runs through. At certain timesContinue reading “The Beautiful Nature We Have Left – Painting of a Neighborhood Forest”
Flying Kites
Last year my kids received kites as a gift and they were super excited to go fly them. One weekend when the weather was right, I took about an hour to untangle all of the lines (it was worth the effort), and we took them out to a nearby open field. This was the firstContinue reading “Flying Kites”
Happy 2021! At Peace with the Unknown and Reconnecting with Your Inner Voice
Like the beautiful ocean, there is a vast unknown in the world. 2020 saw much of humanity retreat into homogenous patterned responses, with authority figures certain that they have a play-book answer to every problem. I hope we can be more open to the unknown, to not having all of the the answers. As aContinue reading “Happy 2021! At Peace with the Unknown and Reconnecting with Your Inner Voice”
