Winter Wonders
I love the crisp air, the crunch of the snow and the glistening white the covers the ground come winter in my part of the country. This season conjures up memories of ice skating and walking home to a warm dinner. I love winter! I want you to join me in this journey into the beauty and glory of winter. I have been fortunate to travel to the East, the Midwest and the West during winter. I am always amazed by the greeting of light everywhere I travel.
Scenes of Absence
This series came with much reflection during "covid." I know we may be tired of hearing about "Covid." We all deal with stress and loss in our own way. But for me it opened my eyes to so much loss. Loss not only through covid but through broken relationships, fear and resentment. It broke my heart and opened me to seek a better way. To reexamine my superficial spirituality and take a look at what it means to love your enemies and see myself in them and even see Christ Himself in them. These painting depict missing persons from desertion, death or dereliction of duty. We each have our missing persons and as a result feel incomplete again because we are meant to belong to one another.

Emblems of Rebirth
Once we have encountered loss and the sorrow and disappointment that so often accompanies it, we need healing and rebirth which requires us to dig deep and trust again. Fortunately with eyes seeing new light we can trust the pictures of hope created to guides us home. Renewed and refreshed we can lift our heads in confidence that it will all make sense in time and eternity. Look to the emblems of rebirth designed to remind us there is a way to renewal.
Darkness!
The light is fading earlier each day. Darkness is going to reign with all of its magic.
Being Transparent
Transparency is the way to see life in the Rogues exhibition. Here are my submissions.
Autumn Impressions
There is nothing like Autumn colors to wake me up to the seasons sparkle. The days may be pleasantly warm with the nights turning cool, just to remind you to get those walks in before the season disappears. I have favorite trees that turn colors, marking the incoming season. Its a family thing we have shared for what seems ages. The season changes means so much: gathering in the last harvest, baked apple pies, pasties, and so much more.Oh yeah and the how apple cider. These paintings are collection of memories for us all.
