Hey, the 1990s called and want their website back….

Hi there.I just wanted to take a moment to say that yes, I am quite aware that this website is not as dynamic as most contemporary websites.

That is because it is free

The Blogger platform is one of the oldest online and it shows. When I started my An Apple A Day project (2020), it was really on a lark (see link to "Welcome" page) and was done before I had many artworks hurried into gallery exhibitions. It really was just for the Apple project. I have continued to use it after the close of that project and maintain it in addition to Instagram, my ko-fi.com and artrepreneur.com sites  


Thank you for visiting!

Summit makes it to Maryland Hall (Annapolis)!

This will be my first artwork to be displayed at Maryland Hall (Annapolis), which is very exciting. I wish the reception weren't during Paint Annapolis week, but it's probably not a bad thing to make me take a break and socialize.

Mt. Tabor = SOLD

It’s gonna be hard to let this one go. It has become one of my favorites. Painted in my car on a cold January afternoon, I’d always thought this was an old one-room schoolhouse, Nope.  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Tabor_Good_Samaritan_Lodge_No._59



 




The Homestretch

This year’s entry for the Hospice Cup Poster Competition was made using last year’s entry as a template for a digital painting.
