The Annual Winter Show of Small Works at Parklane Gallery in Kirkland, WA is open! Customers can take their new pieces home right away instead of waiting for the show to end so new works will be cycling through until January 3, 2025. Online shopping is available on the gallery site too at https://parklanegallery.org/winter24/ Three of my Nature Shadows pieces are a part of this show including Hovering Hummingbird, White Butterfly on Purple, and Blue Butterfly on Orange. Here's the first one on display at the show -

I'm honored to have my "Apple Pie" painting used as the advertising image for the Schacktoberfest show at The Schack Art Center in Everett, WA. You can get one of these nice postcards at the front desk this month.

Brassworks Gallery in Portland, OR shipped me blank postcards to paint on for their 2nd annual postcards show in December. I'm excited to be a part of it! I'll be making mini oil paintings of some of my favorite fruit imagery on them and will be treating them like any other canvas starting with a tinted gesso layer and sealing them with removable Gamsol varnish. Fun!

I'm testing out a blank page as a blog so I can share quick updates. I've just finished and posted a Glazed photo of my 16x20" oil painting of "Dambo's Birdhouse" that I did for fun for my own gallery wall (Thank you Thomas Dambo), I've got an avocado painting commission in the works on my easel, and a nice new frame coming in the mail so I can make my "Apple Pie" painting pretty for the Schack show in September.
