Sorry I didn't post on Wednesday. I was working on a portrait for a show at the Semmes Library. I turned it in before it was photographed.The reception is tonight from 6:00-7:00. Drop by if you get a chance. Today I am working on a commission that needs to be finished. So, I thought I would share this painting with you. It is another last minute- need something for a show- piece. I think working under pressure allows for that loose painterly quality that I love. The colors also work very well in this painting. I'm off to photograph the sky. See you soon...T

If you are from Mobile you know what over the bay means. Posting kind of late today. I went to visit my daughter the super brain in Mississippi. The drive inspired this painting.

This painting is more vivid than it appears in the photo. I love the contrast of the reds with the subtle green tones of the background. Pears are favorite subject of mine. Also a favorite fruit.See you soon...T

This painting is inspired by the remembrance of those who lost their lives in the twin towers. I know in my heart that those who made the decision to jump didn't make that decision alone.

This is the first of my 2009 edition of faceless angels. My angels celebrate those who have profound influence on our day to day lives. Most often they go unnoticed as they move in and out of our community of friends, family and strangers.

I will be offering Faceless Angel ornaments this year. Look for them in the next week or two.
Don't forget the angels in your life. See you soon...T

Boy! Who knew snapdragons would be so tricky? I admit I struggled a little with this but all came out well in the end. It is nice to be playing with impressionism again. I have just finished an abstract marathon for my show at the University of South Alabama. It opened September first and will be on display through the end of October. I have started painting this years angels and will be posting samples and ordering information soon. I found out this morning a local artist is copying my faceless angels.What a great complement!
See you soon...T
