commission piece

Finally finished! This commissioned piece took me a bit out of my comfort zone. I'm sure it will look good framed and on a wall inside this home. I'm happy it's done and I'm looking forward to starting two paintings I've had planned–A sunflower and the other, a barn in a cotton field.

Graceful Symmetry–The painting

Graceful Symmetry was inspired by a Gardenia bush that is planted in my front yard. One day I happened upon a perfectly symmetrical bloom. I took some photos for reference and created this warm and inviting painting.

Autumn Rain

Autumn is finally in the air! I'm looking forward to getting out and taking pictures of the fall foliage. New pictures leads to new paintings!

Autumn Rain was an enjoyable study of warm and cool colors. I Painted this scene on a 6 X 8 inch Birch panel and protected it with a high gloss varnish. I continued the scene on the sides to give it a gallery wrapped look so it displays nicely with or without a frame.

In celebration of the changing of the seasons, I'm offering 15% this piece! Use PROMO CODE: AUTUMN
 Oh yes, here's a little secret–You can use this promo code on any original painting currently listed at my store.

Have a great day and thank you for stopping by!

Graceful Symmetry

Sometimes, being a good photographer means being in the right place at the right time and being observant to our surroundings. This Gardenia bush grows in front of my porch. I saw this bloom and ran for my camera. Not two hours after shooting this photo, the bloom had completely changed. I am glad I was there to witness its graceful symmetry.

Have a great day!

Tiger Lilies

Wild Tiger Lilies have been growing wild along the roadside all summer long. I took some time earlier this summer to take some photographs for reference. The colors really contrast against Virginia's Green backgrounds.

A Rose by Any Other Name


This was my first attempted at creating a time-lapse video. Although laboursome, I am pleased with the final product. I hope this video brings inspiration and creativity into your day.

A family member and a friend of mine both ordered prints of this piece. The quality was impressive! If you would like a print of your own, please visit my online gallery.

I hope you enjoyed the video. Please feel free to leave a comment. Thank you for spending a few moment of your day with me!
