Figurative Paintings

For many years I considered myself to be primarily a plein air landscape painter.  Not so, any longer.  I am now spending way more time in my studio - so I can devote myself to more careful, thoughtful design and craftsmanship, leading ultimately to a higher level of expression.  I have a new fascination with the human figure, and I take great pleasure in creating compositions with multiple figures, combining and cropping them in intriguing and often surprising ways, and telling just enough - but not all of - the story.  Here is a selection of my new, figurative, studio watercolors.



Landscape Paintings

I have been a passionate “plein air” painter for many years, and take tremendous pleasure from painting outdoors.  I love to set up my easel in parks or gardens, on street corners or on the beach.  I also enjoy painting landscapes in the comfort of my studio.  Here is a selection of plein air and studio landscape paintings, including architecture, gardens, and the great outdoors. 



Still Life and Floral Paintings

I enjoy arranging objects for a closer look.  Playing with visual relationships, lighting, and shadows is endlessly fascinating, and I find that the more I look, the more I see and appreciate shapes, colors and textures.  And then there are those "found" still lifes, out there in the world, which I can only manipulate on my paper ... a whole new set of challenges.



All the Rest

This gallery contains animals, interior scenes, abstracts, and paintings that can't quite fit into the other broad categories ...
