Creative Spotlight: San Carlos Waterfall Guam Painting Time Lapse

The waterfall symbolizes effortlessness. Powerful, graceful flow. Skillfully moving around that which is often seen as an obstacle. The water finds its way around, creating art out of the rock standing before its path. Cascading beauty, into a pool of calm. I have been experiencing a theme of letting go, patience, trust, graceful powerful flow, …

Creative Spotlight: 2 Lattes & a Wave Time Lapse Video

This piece came together rather quickly. I was in the middle of painting the latest giant spirit tree, and was feeling stuck. Was craving a different painting, so I put aside the big canvas and pulled out a 24″x30″ frame and began painting. I knew I wanted to do a wave, and the latte stones …

Painting Facelift: Always Kiss Me Good Night

This painting was brought to me (after a custom piece was commissioned and loved!) with the request to give it a boost, a facelift if you will. The painting would likely go in the same room that the Tree of Grace would, so I decided to continue with the earthy magical tree concept.

Creative Spotlight: Flower Emerging: Painting in Progress Outdoors

Since I haven’t ordered any large stretched canvas lately, I went to Ross to pick up some big print pieces on clearance to paint over. The canvas is not as high quality as the ones I usually order, but I use thick layers of acrylic paint, so it reinforces the whole piece anyway. It was …

100 Latte Stones in 1 Year: Am I Crazy?

The last painting I did was of 3 latte stones I painted over an old piece. The old piece was titled “Bubblegum Jungle” and was an abstract splash of red, silver, green, yellow and other squiggly blends. I used silver and gold to paint 3 latte stones over the bubblegum jungle. My personal symbolism for …

Guam Reef Hotel Project PART 3

Here is PART 3 to the Guam Reef Hotel Project. (You can also check back to PART 1 and PART 2 to see from the beginning). It has been a serendipitous series of events that led up to the project’s birth. There are so many parallels to this story, it will probably sound too good to be …

Painting & Self Portraits Day

I love photography just about as much as I love painting. Over the years, I’ve gotten way more comfortable with being in photos and also taking self-portraits, especially as I’ve had to do so for my website and other projects requiring a photo and artist bio. It is weird at first writing about yourself and …
