Tango #2

It's Monday morning. It's a dance, making lunches, finding the coffee, warning a kid who's in the shower too long. An efficient pivot and spin, and it all gets done.

Another boat. Life is a lot of work, you know? You row hard, and sometimes there are beaches, and you do what you thought you couldn't do.

I started this painting with lots of faces crowding around the background, but eventually they all seemed unnecessary.

Curve in Path #2

We bought the plane tickets last night to take our son to college. His toes are barely touching the ground, and the whole world is opening up before him.

At Sea

Every painting these days is of the ocean. I've got sand in my shoes and a beach bag by the door.
