Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. Hope everyone is enjoying this “false spring.” One of the unique features of Nashville is that we have about a dozen seasons, and they can change overnight. Fortunately, it looks like the decent weather will last through the Tomato Art Festival this weekend, Yes, the Tomato Art…

Good afternoon from my studio in East Nashville. Hope everyone is surviving this “heat dome.” Those of us from here are familiar with these kind of summers. In fact, the record highs for these days in July occurred when I was only six months old. While I don’t remember that (obviously) I’ve been exposed to…

Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. I hope everyone is staying safe in this horrible heat wave. I’m a Nashville native, and this feels like the hottest, most humid summer ever. Of course, it will break eventually. The current economic uncertainty has been difficult for the art world. The gallery that represented me…

First, an IMPORTANT CORRECTION! I had stated that the Tomato Art Festival Preview Party would be on Friday, August 8. That is INCORRECT. It’s actually on Thursday, August 7. The Festival itself is now billed as a two day event, August 8 & 9. For the full details, I’m posting a link to the Festival.…

Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. Another hot one today. I don’t knop about you, but I’m about done with the heat. Back to another piece for the upcoming Tomato Art Festival on August 9. This one is called “Tomato with a Pearl Earring,” with humble apologies to Ver Meer. I get a…

Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. Hope everyone made it through last week’s “heat dome” awfulness. So unpleasant when the temperature and humidity are both off the charts.

Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. Sorry I did not post last week; sometimes life gets in the way. As Rosanna Rosanna Dana said, “It’s always something.” Anyway, back to work and back to semi-normalcy. Here’s Indy, a cute little furry guy. I try my best to make the photos as accurate a…

Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. Happy to say it is a beautiful morning here in the East, something we’ve had too few of over the last couple of months. Currently working on a large portrait that will be a birthday present next month, so that’s still under wraps. Here’s Ziggy, who I…

Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. I hope everyone had a pleasant Memorial Day weekend, and that we all took a moment to be thankful for the brave men and women who have served our country. Their service and sacrifice have kept the United States free for almost 250 years. Things are slow…

Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. I just got back from an errand on the north side of town, and the roads right now are crazy from the rain. I may start looking for a gently used ark. Here’s a new portrait I just finished. This is Luke, a soulful hound if ever…
