PAINTINGS IN RECENT SHOWS


I have been fortunate to have two of my paintings represented in two shows this month.  I was honored to have my acrylic painting "Industrial Alley" accepted into the South Cobb Arts Alliance 24th National Exhibition.  The Georgia Watercolor Society has also included my watercolor painting "American Export" into the members exhibition in Athens, GA.  Both paintings are from my "Twentieth Century Industrial" series which reflects the vanishing American era that I grew up in juxtaposition with the contemporary world.

I identify more and more with the American scene painters of the 1930's and 40's like Charles Burchfield, Edward Hopper, and Grant Wood.  The stories they tell in paint fit in well with the times we are living in now.

INDUSTRIAL ALLEY, 18X24 ACRYLIC, $450
                                                      
AMERICAN EXPORT, 26X20, WATERCOLOR, $425
