Wow! Where does the time go? It seems like I just sent out my April newsletter, and it's already time for May. I've been busy working on some new "Oops! Landscape" paintings and on the ARTconnectsLA presentations coming up next week. There's more information about both below. I am one of the founding partners of ARTconnectsLA, and if you're in the Los Angeles area, we would love to have you join us for one of our presentations.

I hope this note finds you well and thriving!

Best wishes,


St. John's Health Center Art Wall

Three of my paintings, including the one on the right, were selected for the Digital Art Wall at St. John's Health Center in Santa Monica, CA. The interactive feature is the first digital art program of its kind, and is comprised of sixteen 50-inch video screens with more than 17 feet of digital display. The Art Wall displays artwork done by emerging and established artists from the hospital and local community, including children’s artwork.

The Art Wall is in the state-of-the-art Howard Keck Diagnostic and Treatment Center, scheduled to open next year.

New Work

Reflections on Water
36 x 12 inches
acrylic latex on canvas   

These are two new paintings from my "Oops! Landscapes" series. First I apply molding or crackle paste to the canvas, to create texture. After the paste is dry, I apply layers of paint, using a scraper to cut through and blend the layers, to create the illusion of land, sea and sky. Click on either image to see more new landscape paintings.
