Here is the new version and the older version of the same painting. I always debate whether I should go back and work on an existing painting. In this case I did. I'm happy with it, but I still question if I did the right thing. You be the judge.

Finished this painting "Last Roses of Summer" yesterday. WOW...I am so glad that it is officially done! Not the easiest painting to figure-out. I always find it fascinating how some paintings just come together relatively easily, and others are such a struggle. Now I am off to the studio to work on another painting. Enjoy!

I am very excited to say that I have been chosen as one of the artist that is exhibiting their work at the Artexpo Studio Gallery in Monterey, Cal. Here is a sampling of what is out there. Enjoy!

This piece "The Emperor's New Clothes"was selected into the
Danforth Museum's "Picture This" exhibit 2012.
