36″x48″ this whooping crane had a great spring season down at the coast. Having met a mate and created the next generation, life is good. Would that we could all be so fulfilled.

Big Whoop II is drying…
Whoop whoop! This graceful animal is one of the greater hard luck to winner stories.
There should be hope remaining for all the rest of us so long as life is still ours.
This lovely painting will fly down to Port Aransas on January 20th to mingle with others for their annual whooping crane festival exhibit- the theme this year is ‘Birds.’
Splashdown I is now live and available!
The moment of splashdown is captured. Water rolls away from this adult brown pelican in impasto waves that beckon the viewer closer. On closer look, the fine darker plumage glows in its transparencies of many shades of mahogany. Light reflects off of the wings, expressing the freedom of the sky in it’s echoes of color taken from the background of a colorful horizon.
Beast and environment are one, just as we all yearn to be one within our own environs and communities. Harmony in the work as in the wild.
Traditional oil techniques, including the use of marble dust in the impasto. Framed in a white wooden frame, hanging wire attached and ready to grace your wall!
