Heightened Awareness Along The Path

Going into minimalism for awhile. This oil painting called "Hightened Awareness Along The Path" is a long overdue creation. Ever since my return to painting in 1999 I wanted to do large scale color canvases. Well, the time has come for them to appear in my reality. This one is so red it can't be ignored. I've always been drawn to the use of color for evoking emotions.

Horizon 23

This is a new pastel painting in the horizon series. The format of low horizon skyscapes allows me endless variations of a central theme.

The Secrets Of Red And Yellow

This painting is part of a series of stripe paintings that I am wanting to get back to. Working in a format of 4x6 feet to assure visual impact, I'm using color as the subject, keeping the variations relative to a particular hue. The series is up to five so far and they have all found homes. This one hangs at Unity Temple in Kansas City, Missouri.

Pink Tulip Study

The inspiration for this painting comes from all the color that appears in the spring. I found some flower beds that were lit at night and the color really popped out of the darkness. I'm creating impact with high contrast yet retaining a softness with the loosely rendered edges.

Horizon # 21

This oil painting is part of an ongoing series. I'm very inspired by the emotion of color. A simple low horizon composition allows me to use color as the subject, almost approaching minimalism. This piece was part of a multiple purchase to hang with three other of my horizon paintings.

Red Rose Study

There seems to be a common theme in my recent posts, that would be the color red. This small oil painting is a study for a larger painting. I am inspired by the abstract effect of the arial view of flowers. Cropping one side allowed me to create an off center composition yet it remains visually balanced.
