Reedy Veil

10" x 8" acrylic on canvas covered hardboard
$75

After searching for cattails in several locations, imagine my surprise at suddenly discovering them at the very edge of the post office parking lot!

Luckily I had my camera.

I used the digital image to spur my imagination and the "what if" factor kicked in.

Last Sail of the Season

12" x 9" acrylic on canvas covered hardboard
$90

This was painted using only red, yellow, black and white acrylic pigments.


I wanted to convey an atmospheric, open, serene feeling. After I laid in the basic shapes, the painting almost
painted itself.

In 1998, my daughter Ann and I visited Ireland, seeing the land of our ancestors for the first time. Photographs hardly held the beauty of the country. I felt the need to paint landscapes depicting what we had seen.

Some 25+ years before, I had studied art at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. However, the dim memory of classroom art needed sharpening, if I was to paint the Irish landscapes I had come to love.

After participating in several local art workshops, I could see my style beginning to develop. After doing several paintings, I began to include countryside scenes from my native North Georgia foothills.

My artwork has been shown at Gallery 111 in Dalton, GA, and several civic centers in the North Georgia/Tennessee area. Another collector of my work lives in Ireland.

Since recently retiring from the Postal Service, I find that painting every day has become a joy that I cannot contain.
