Bridesmaid Shoes


This humble - and much maligned - species of the genus "shoes" also deserves its place at the table.

Ooo! Date Shoes!


I don't really own all these shoes, but they are fun to paint. And it's fun to fantasize!

Love those red shoes!

It's shoes that interest me now. They seem to embody something important about the people who wear them: their energy, their vanity, their lack of vanity, their work-a-day-ness, their hopes, their discouragement, their sense of aliveness. They're more than something to just keep our feet dry and warm.

Desert life 2 in progress

Decided it was time to get back into some of my larger paintings. This is one in progress, 12" X 24". I'll post updated versions from time to time.

In the Show


This grouping of daily paintings, called "Not by Bread Alone", which was posted a few days ago, was accepted into the annual Springville Museum Spring Salon. Those of us who live in Utah take being accepted in the show as an important recognition because it is the premier show in Utah for living artists.

Another Colombian Pot (Revised)

Here's the revised version of Friday's posting (April 18th). As you can see, the pot got a handle, a little bit smaller and more refined.

Another Colombian Pot

This painting, and the other South American pots I've posted this week are part of a commission. This one is a little more complicated than the others and I don't consider it finished. I'll post the final version sometime over the weekend.

Colombian Pot, Too


Two days ago, I painted this pot from another angle. I thought this might be more interesting. I have also modified the background on the painting two days ago. I don't know which one works the best. I've posted the new version next to the old one back on the April 15th posting.
