Lemons on Turquoise - SOLD at the Spring Art Tour

It's time for the Spring Art Tour.   I like the saturated colors and shiny reflections in this one.  The turquoise and yellow dominate, but area of lavender-blue in the background keeps it from feeling like just a one-note song.  On display at Dockton Pottery 25913 99th Ave SW in Dockton just opposite the old Dockton Store - May 4 & 5 and 11 & 12 from 10 to 5.

Eggplant Painting in Spring Art Tour

Eggplant is one of my favorite vegetables.  Not just for eating, but also because the color is so deep and wonderful to paint.  This painting is very simple, but such lovely reflections.   This one will be at the Vashon Island Art Studio Tour during the first two weekends in May.  I'll be showing paintings at Dockton Pottery, 25913 99th Ave SW opposite the old Dockton Store.  Stop # 23 on the map.  Click here for a printable map

Clementine and Teapot on Black, Dramatic Orange

I wanted the clementine to shine, so I put a spotlight overhead and stuck the black teapot in dark shadow.  Just a bit of reflection and a few highlights add great drama.  This one will be at the Spring Studio Tour.  I'll be showing paintings at Dockton Pottery, 25913 99th Ave SW, stop # 23 on the Tour. Maps are available at http://vivartists.com/viva/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Printable-Map.pdf.  The first two weekends in May, put it on your calendar.  Come see the art.

Dockton Marina


Morning sun lights the boats and shed of the Dockton Marina.   The tide is going out and puddles of water remain on the gray sand.  A larger painting 24 inches square.  On my ETSY store
