/Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. Hope everyone is having a great day. Here’s the last of the small landscapes. As you recall, these are 6×11, the perfect size for a small space. They are $135.00 plus tax (free shipping). You can DM me to purchase. The series was only five paintings, and…

Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. Hope everyone is okay after last week’s scary weather. Those of us in the East are always nervous when tornadoes pop up, given our experience just a few years ago. These spring storms can cause almost unimaginable destruction. Again, I hope you came through unscathed. I’m still…

Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. Been another stormy spring, with more on the way. Those of us in the east are especially sensitive to the storms, given our experience in 2020. I hope we don’t have anything like that again. I started showing the little 6×11 gray landscapes last week. I was…

Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. Hope everyone is enjoying this nice spring weather. Let’s hope it stays that way and no storms in our future. I’m in that time of year – just before tax time – where the pet commissions slow down. So, I been having some fun doing soft black…

Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. I was off last week (though some might say I’m “off” all the time). Glad to be back and enjoying this beautiful weather. Hope everyone got through the weekend storms okay. Very sorry about those who didn’t. Maybe that’s the last of this springs storms. Here’s Jade,…

Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. Hope everyone is doing well. The forecast says storms tonight, so be prepared and stay safe. Here’s Koda, another Christmas portrait. I was especially struck by how beautiful his eyes are. One of the features of our interactions with dogs is through their eyes – and ours.…

Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. We have another one of our famous false springs going on. Probably means another cold snap is on the way. I’m a Nashville native, and have seen this many times. Still, I intend to get out and enjoy the sunshine today. Here’s Bismark. She’s very beautiful. I…

Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. Looks like we may actually get some snow overnight. Of course, it’s Nashville so who knows? Our area is notoriously difficult for weather forecasts. Whatever happens, stay safe. Here’s Logan, another Christmas time painting. This one is a bit unusual since the reference photo was an action…

Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. That lousy rodent in Gobbler’s Knob is hitting us with cold rain, one of the worst feeling weather conditions. Sigh, more winter to come. Hope you are warm and dry. Here’s Buddy. I painted this for a friend as a present to his wife. Buddy had been…

Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. Hope everyone is well today. I was disappointed on Sunday: that rodent in Pennsylvania saw his own shadow. The great blues singer-songwriter John Hyatt has a song called “Wintertime Blues.” The song has a line that goes: “Puxatony Phil, if he sees his own shadow I’m shootin’…
