Air,Sea, Earth


When i paint an interior scene, i enjoy painting the rug design the most. I love creating the motifs and color patterns. I think it was Paul Gauguin who said that everything you need to know about color and design is found in an oriental rug. This is my version of an oriental rug. I included birds, animals, fish and flowers through out the design. This painting is 16x20 done on stretched cotton and linen. BTW I think the angle I held my camera made it look a little uneven but the real thing isn't!
For sale in my Etsy shop.

Queen Of Hearts

Every time I see a deck of cards, it reminds me of being 10 years old, playing Slap Jack or Crazy Eights on a towel at Seabrook beach. Instead of paying attention to the cards I was dealt, I was busy looking at the intricate designs of the King, Jack and Queen. Some cards are quite beautiful.
This is my newest painting done with acrylic paints on stretched cotton. The Queen of hearts stands 8x10. Available for sale in my Etsy shop.
