I have been absorbing images and impressions on a daily basis. Soon it will be time to put these to canvas. The well is almost full, and the paint will soon flow.

Highway to Spring

People ask me if I make a living as an artist. The answer is,....  Artists survive. They earn what they need to feed their art. They support their paintings like a father or mother supports their children. You do what you have to do to paint another day. Its not about making money, it about making art, and learning to survive by doing it. That, becomes  a living. Learning to survive by doing your art, and consequently, living by that credo. In fact, you are living from the doing of it.    ....... more on this another time.

Nice Little City

You don't actually have to be in a place to paint a place. Sometimes, all that is needed is the sense of place, from memories, sights, sounds and experiences. This painting is just that. A culmination of the many nice things that I remember about a lot of little cities that I have visited.
