For purchase information, please email [email protected] (I am offering this framed or unframed). Since the weather in Chicagoland has been so warm and sunny, we have tulips starting to pop up already....along with all the other flowers. I am loving it.

The Boss


Oil on 1/4" Board. Approx 6"x6"

Before we had kids, this dog was our life. His name is Schnitz Zel Naples and he is almost 10 years old. We have nicknames for him such as Nit, Nitzel, Sir, Boss, Stink Mouth, Nitster, Long Nose, Foot Stool, Mister Nit, Nitty, Frito Foot...and I'm sure I missed a few. Anyway, enjoy the painting.

Intersecting Wires


Oil on 1/4" Board. Approx 6"x6" SOLD

It's been almost a year since I painted these wires. I feel there are so many ways to look at them. In my backyard, when I swing on the swing set with my kids, I always look up at these and see them in a new way. That's how my artist brain works.

Lucy's Sandwich


Oil on 1/4" Board. Approx 6"x6"

Most days my kids are great eaters, but sometimes if they get distracted during lunch, this is what is left. A sandwich with one little bite taken out of it.

Bosc on an Antique Box


Oil on 1/4" Board. Approx 6"x6" SOLD

I really like the temperatures going on in this painting. The warms and cools really seem to work together. I think this is the second Bosc I've ever painted and that's a shame because I really like their shape and colors.

I am still painting like a mad man for the upcoming shows. The first is April 6 and the second is the larger 4-artist show on May 11. I can't wait to see the whole body of work hanging together...but that's a lot of paintings away so back to work.
