OTE - 2/18/16 9:16am I love painting in the early morning sun. I think she's done.
OTE - 2/5/16 3:18pm A bit further along... I think it needs 1 maybe 2 more somethings.... I may leave some of the fish unfinished in white... I like what they emote...
OTE - 1/31/16 - 10:22 AM I like exploring new environment colors and the infinity symbol. And continue to explore who's following who...
OTE - 1/13/16 - Mid Day Did only two layers of fish on these, I wanted to keep them more simple.
OTE - 1/12/16 - Early Morning "Expanding Infinity". Adding loops to the Infinity symbol it begins to resemble a strand of DNA.
OTE - 12/30/15 - 3:33 PM I feel this is almost done and think it's called "Almost There".
OTE - 12/17/15 - 4:26 PM Working a couple of small acrylics. The fish on the left is painted with a coffee.
OTE - 11/29/15 - 1:01 PM Doing the little outlined guys again. I think they may lead me somewhere.
OTE - 7/21/15 - 11:52 AM I love the abundance and the sparseness the ocean can offer.
OTE - 7/14/15 - 9:04 AM Taking the fish off the canvas. I love Hudson River Driftwood and enjoy pushing myself out of my comfort zone and into a different medium. My Great Grandfather worked in wood and marble on Cyprus.
OTE - 5/23/15 - Taking A Break Working on a Large 80" x 30" piece for Park 143 Bistro & Fish. I haven't worked this large in a while, I'm diggin' it.
OTE - 3/20/15- From The Weekend Like New York City, this is a multi colorful school...
OTE - 3/7/15 - 11:17 AM Fun to work on a medium sized canvas and to play with this Acrylic background... There are probably 15-20 layers on this one.... can't wait to see where this one goes...
OTE - 3/6/15 - 10:17 AM Mmmmmm... Nice blank place to start :-)
OTE - 3/4/15 - 10:05 AM A couple more and done... Like our City, New York... "Our Colorful School" is made of many combinations...
OTE - 2/20/15 - 5:35 PM Another from Save Our Schools series... This one more optimistic showing we can all swim together... "Our Colorful School" Oil on Wood
OTE - 2/19/15 - 1:04 PM Still on this one.... It's a hard one to work on... The souls of the disfigured Sharks are making me sad and angry...
OTE - 2/18/15 - 1:47 PM Started another SOS " Save Our Seas... This one depicts the human blight on Sharks... If we cut the arms and legs off of any other animal and left them to bleed out and die the world would be horrified and outraged... let's make it so for the sharks and ban shark fin soup.
OTE - 2/12/15 - 10:00 AM Excited about a new colorful Oil on wood "Our Colorful School" and really diggin' the Acrylic on Black Hoodie too...

OTE - 2/3/15 - 6:13 PM This one speaks to the fact that our rivers are so damned Salmon can't spawn.
OTE - 2/1/15 - 1:27 PM One of the Paper People looking like The Cat In The Hat...
OTE - 1/30/15 - 6:54 PM The journey continues... I feel like this is bringing me somewhere between The Badlands and The Outback...
OTE - 1/30/15 - 9:31 AM This one is Oil on a wooden panel.... I'm going back... searching for an old style and subjects I used to paint... figures and landscapes...
OTE - 1/28/15 - 4:11 PM I think it's done... kind of a different one for me...
