Remnants of Times Past 6 x 6 Arylic Antique Car Painting



SOLD

When I started painting urban landscapes I never liked painting the automobiles in the compositions. But, they are everywhere in the urban landscape so I have come to enjoy the character they can bring to a piece as well as making them the focus of a painting. I don't know my antique cars and trucks but this image was sent to me from Rich and Katrina in Lubbock Texas and they might know the make of the truck. All I know is this specimen made a wonderful subject for a painting. Thanks Rich and Katrina!

Mesa Verde Resident 5 x 7 Acrylic Reptile Painting








$100.00 + $10.00 S/H

Mesa Verde is an awesome place to visit. Southern Colorado is spectacular and one of its native residents is this little fella. I don't know the name of this little lizard but I will call him Pete. Pete is a great poser!

Twilight Gathering 6 x 6 Acrylic Evening Urban Landscape of Provincetown








$100.00 +$10.00 S/H

This is another painting in a series from a recent trip to Provincetown. It was a very warm night and had just rained when I took this picture. I loved the way the streets glowed with reflections and the way the figures are back lighted. Enjoy.

The Lights of Provincetown Acrylic 6 x 6 Coastal Urban Landscape



SOLD

Twilight is my favorite time of day and catching the mood the light creates while looking out over the bay at Provincetown was spectacular. The street lights twinkling on the dock in the distance with the picket fence in the foreground is a classic Cape Cod scene. I am having so much fun painting landscapes so different than I am used to seeing.

PTown Night Life Acrylic 7 x 5 Cape Cod Urban Landscape








$100.00 + $10.00 S/H

I think for a few days I am going to paint some scenes from a trip I took to Cape Cod. The town I stayed in was called Provincetown and is located on the very tip of the Cape. The town is very quaint and full of art galleries. I had so much fun just walking around enjoying the easy going nature of this artistic sea shore community. This painting was of the town just before night fall after a heavy warm rain. Everything smelled so fresh.

Bathed in Paris Light 5 x 7 Acrylic Urban Landscape of Paris



SOLD


The light in Paris was wonderfully warm and bright. It reminded me of the light I grew up with in Albuquerque New Mexico. It's effect on the landscape is spectacular and makes an everyday event like shopping an experience to remember.
