  • Rural Singapore, watercolor painting

    Rural Singapore, watercolor 21 x 30 cm/ 8.3 x 11.7″

    Adding to the long series of watercolor paintings from my travels, Rural Singapore is the first from that trip. The large leaves, variety of colors vegetation, some which is not quite like what I have seen before, yield a strong impression of lushness befitting a warm and humid climate. The abstract elements provide diversity. We are doing more than just giving you what a photo could, another level of variety in form and color with which to feast the eye.

  • Winter Canal

    Winter Canal, charcoal, , 64 x 40 cm/25 x 16″

    Continuing with my efforts in charcoal, this is a winter scene in the Netherlands.

    We’ve traveled extensively on the canals of the Netherlands. Not long ago these canals froze every winter and to this day the Dutch people are over-represented in the Winter Olympic speed skating events.

    This canal is located near ‘s-Hertogenbosch. People call it Den Bosch. There are some 160,000 residents. It is the capital of the province of North Brabant and its fourth largest city by population in the Netherlands. It is famous for the Bossche bol – called chocoladebol locally. It is a puff pastry filled with delicious thick whipped cream and covered with chocolate.

    Another in my series of Hopper inspired paintings, a woman looks out over a golden field with a thick green forest at its edge. Figures walk in a line towards the dark woods, phantoms in the foreground. Completed in 2021, modified 2025.

    From Saatachi’s description: https://www.saatchiart.com/art/Painting-Looking-Out/664581/13637737/view

    “Looking Out” is an original acrylic painting on canvas, inspired by the iconic style of Edward Hopper. The expressionistic landscape depicts a woman gazing out over a golden field that meets a thick, verdant forest. The scene takes on a symbolic and mysterious quality with the addition of fantasy figures walking towards the dark woods.

    The artist’s use of colorful greens, blues, and yellows creates a vibrant and captivating image. The painting’s technique and materials enhance the overall expressionistic effect, inviting viewers to explore the narrative and emotions within the piece.

  • Woman in Black and White

    Woman in Black and White, charcoal, 64 x 40 cm/25 x 16″


    This drawing began its life as an Italian actress, first as a painting and then appearance modified here as charcoal drawing. This yields a high contrast that leaps from your wall. The foreshortening is extreme. Highlights in the hair pop off the paper.

  • Not Just Another Pretty Face/ Más Que Otra Cara Bonita (painting)

    Más Que Otra Not Cara Bonita – Not Just Another Pretty Face, acrylics 1.8 x 1.3 meters/5.9 x 4.3′, prints only

    I find endless inspiration in musical performance, and this original acrylic painting on canvas, “Not Just Another Pretty Face/ No Es Solo Otra Cara Bonita”, is the latest exploration of that theme. Here, a piano player takes center stage, rendered with both abstract and expressionist elements. The oversized canvas is a study in contrasts: light and dark, color and tone, and a blend of artistic styles.

    The fluid strokes of acrylic paint create a dynamic interplay between realism and expressionism. The figurative elements of the piano player are grounded in reality, while the surrounding abstract textures evoke the passionate atmosphere of a live musical performance.

    This piece makes a dramatic statement, vibrant energy and thought-provoking composition.

  • Cochem II (watercolor)

    Cochem is on the Moselle River. We cruised aboard our boat Viking. The view of the castle from our mooring was fabulous. I climbed the mountain for the views of the river and surrounding area.
