New Painting Series – Island Land Trail Sunset Vermont 2026 – Gaining Perspective About My Experience of Painting Doing Series of Series
It’s a welcome surprise to realize how rich one’s life experience can be, even within seemingly single short time frames themselves! I feel this new small study, with its misty soft blues and distant vistas is a nice reflection of that.

I wasn’t sure when to stop but my own waves of self, conscious of the need to rest joined the earth before me, an image shaped by pigments from itself.

June 22, 2022 – New! – Walking in Light Poster
With our move to our new apt home done except for the sorting and placements, and Sheila and I are tiptoeing back into doing some exercise sets via SilverSneakers’ live Zoom class options, I’m finally beginning to post the few posters I’d gotten to work on before moving became a full time job, lol!

August 17, 2021 – My Newest Poster Upload @FineArtAmerica – Morning Light in Barton Springs Greenbelt, Austin Texas Poster

I was so fortunate the other evening, having gone a bit earlier than usual, the day having cooled the tiniest bit, enough for me to chance it, and I caught this sight right off!…A little later I was offered a chance to catch a shot of a lady and her dog near this same spot.

January 07, 2021 – Among the Heroes of Yesterday’s Challenge to Our Democracy
On a day when nearly 4000 more Americans died of the supposed hoax virus Covid-19, the center of our democracy in Washington DC and an as yet unconfirmed or released number state capitols (including my home state of Texas) were either simultaneously breached or had peaceful protests.
