Abstractions



I think I've got it!  Been dabbling in abstraction.  Who said "my dog could do it"?  Painting a successful abstraction is not an easy feat!  Sometimes things just "click".  You may disagree, but I think I've painted a couple of successful abstract pieces and I'm having a blast doing it.  I intend to continue, possibly beginning a mini series of these.  My vision is to hang them on dowels like scrolls.  Something about this format appeals to me.

Places We Call Home




Places We Call Home opened Friday June 11 to an appreciative crowd.  Kudos to CRAG members for some fine work.  I had three landscape paintings, inspired by our 2009 trip to Costa Rica on view.  The gallery space at Fiddleheads is shaping up into a cool little space to highlight visual art.
