This 46" x 36" was commissioned for a specific space newly reestablished as a 'men's den'. The acrylic on canvas captures a memorable event which is forever now documented with an original painting.
We spend a lot of time in our bathrooms - so, why not have some orginal art to look at while your blow drying your hair or brushing your teeth? This was the thought process of the owner of these two new stretched and framed silks.
Scranton was alive and very well for First Friday. A new gallery is on the scene - New Visions Studio and Gallery at 201 Vine Street Scranton which had a juried show the theme being 'Family Ties.' I entered a piece I did in 2000 which the investigated my fear of life without my dad.
If you eat the whole thing like an orange - you've got two of your five servings in - bam, done.... and so so yummy!
Yesterday I hung some new pieces in a beautiful home in Shavertown. Val said 'my house is an open canvas' as there were many blank walls begging for some original art work. She picked a pair of salt and pepper shaker paintings for the dining area and a stretched butterfly silk painting for the den. She and her husband commissioned me to do two pieces for their spacious living room - one of a ginkgo and one of lupine - both images have symbolic significance to their life together with their three beautiful kids.
