Paintings For Office

Are you using zoom or google meets to conduct virtual business meetings? Instead of using a virtual background, a blank wall, or a potted plant behind you, why not consider original art to show off your individuality?  I'm always fascinated when I see original artwork hanging behind the presenter on their computer.  I find the person who's speaking to be more interesting.   I'd love to do a commission specified to the size and subject matter that works best for your arrangement. Hanging a one-of-a-kind original work of art represents that you're a one-of-a-kind individual.  Let's come up with something...

Pandemic Isolation

I've been silent on my blog for some time now.  These have been difficult and complicated times.  Due to the Pandemic and being unable to socially distance my students from one another,  I've had to discontinue my classes.  Since the beginning of March, my studio has been quiet.  I miss the friendships that I've developed with my students, the bustling of creativity welling up inside of their creative minds, and most of all, their smiling faces. Isolation is a common thing for many artists, but I'm one of those artists who enjoys a mix of solitude and social interaction.  I...
