My good friend Cynthia Blackwood's gallery and custom framing store provides a great backdrop for my paintings throughout the month of March. I think this my pieces look better here than any other gallery venue I've had to date!

It's great to be PAINTING again!
I am up and running in my new space just outside Philadelphia
The new painting space is working out beautifully, with great northern light and a great new draft table/easel.
Still working hard on the new studio/shop space in the garage--a bigger challenge to renovate. When I removed a dingy and crumbling masonite ceiling, I discovered that raccoons had formerly inhabited a large nest there. Several inches of petrified raccoon feces came down along with the ceiling and other debris stored in the rafters! 
EW!
Unfortunately, the painting selected for the printed cards was subsequently sold at the Artist's Crossing gallery in Boston shortly before I brought the pieces to Pennsylvania!

This new piece is a scene from Forbidden Drive along the Wickahisson Creek at the Walnut Lane Bridge. This park system is an amazing undeveloped tract of land that was preserved to feed the original municipal water reservoir, now the site of Philadelphia's beautiful Art Museum. Another of bit historic trivia I love: When it was constructed in 1903, this bridge was the longest concrete structure in the world.
New Series of Figure Paintings
This is the first of a series of figure and portraiture studies that I will continue to develop this year. The richness and intensity of Casein paints offer great opportunities for interesting lighting and color effects when working with the human form.
