Find Your Way Home

 Sundown, on a calm evening, creates a light that feels like a song. I've had this song in my head and couldn't wait to get it down on canvas. This piece changes with the light around it. The blues and reds pop when well lit and then sit back when the light goes down - hopefully...a little like a sunset. 

Find Your Way Home is a 36"x24" acrylic painting on stretched canvas with painted edges. This piece is available at Peculiar Painter in Walker, MN. for $1,650.00 | 218-547-3729

I've had a vision for this painting.  I wanted to paint a girl who is lost in a good book while enjoying a beautiful lake setting.

Market Day • SOLD

 When a visitor stopped by the shop, this summer, wearing a wonderful striped dress - I knew I had to paint her. I pictured her in a market scene. I couldn't decide between an art fair, farmers market or festival...so I combined some of my favorite things from all of these. We have textiles, tents, flowers and pottery displayed in this scene. I hope you feel the freshness of a fun outfit, new haircut and gathering of hand crafted goods with this piece.

Simplistic Geranium •SOLD

My mind has been filled with images that need to be put to paint lately...which means later nights :)  I'm always amazed how resilient and intense the Geranium plant is - it comes back and says, "hello, I've missed you!" I wanted to simplify this painting to be about the round petals and color.
