Red Wing Balcony

Red Wing Balcony

Oil, 14 x 11 inches

Painting in the quaint rivertown of Red Wing, Minnesota, I couldn't keep my eyes off the beautiful pattern of light and shadows on the old brick warehouse that has been converted into lofts.

Mother's Day Roses

Mother's Day Roses

Oil on linen, 20x16 inches

A surprise Mother's Day gift from my daughter and son-in-law. It was obvious that the UPS man was happy to be delivering something he knew would bring joy to the recipient! What a day brightener, and much appreciated. I knew I had to paint them right away, so I rushed to the studio and got busy.

Tomatoes and Shallots (revisited)

Oil, 9 x 12 inches

I've been sorting through stacks of paintings in my studio. When I ran into this one, I almost put it in the reject pile. Instead, I put it on the easel and made some bold changes, including removing a garden tool that I never really cared for.
This painting was originally done as a demonstration during the Eagan Harvest of Arts Festival.
