Automobile Classics

It’s time for cars. Dream cars, race cars, steel cars. Stick shifts and double shifts. Those cars we drove before seat belts. The classics.

My favorite cars are those where I can relax in the passenger seat with my feet on the dash.

These cars will be at the Paratissima art fair in Turin, Italy from 1 to 5th November. Look for Carré d’artistes stand and find the your dream car.

All paintings are oil on canvas.

 

The Sedona show

I’ve already blogged about my positive experiences with Carré d’artistes fine art galleries. Here is another reason why I like to work with them. After returning home from Sedona this came in the mail.


I lovely note signed by wonderful people. And two brushes. A thoughtful follow up.

 Painting isn’t an effort, it is a pleasure and I am lucky to call myself a professional painter. Lucky also to work with Carré d’artistes. They know how to make their artists feel desirable. 

I managed to take in the sights and photograph the Bell Rock vortex. Hiking wasn’t on my agenda. But I did meditate and saw the magic. There are lots of faces on that rock.

The show had a good turnout despite the outrageous heat. It was 49 degrees in Phoenix, and 37 in Sedona. 

I made the trip to Flagstaff and found my father’s tomb. Afternoon wandering around the cemetery for over an hour and being dive bombed by crows I asked for a sign.  This was the sign. It was on top of the tomb. No idea who put it there.


Thank you to all of you who contributed to The Indiegogo campaign. And thank you Cate Stetson for the wonderful meals.

Fly me to Sedona

On June 17th I’ll be in Sedona, Arizona for a live painting demonstration. To help pay for my expenses I’ve put up a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo. Here is the link

Fly Me to Sedona

I’m hoping to raise just $750 to help buy my plane tickets.

My total expenses will be over $2000 for the four day trip.

One of the perks I’m offering is a postcard-sized watercolor of Sedona’s famous Bell Rock. I’ll write whatever you want and send from Sedona to anywhere in the world. This could be a fun surprise for a friend.

I’m also offering painting workshops, limited edition lithographs, and some original paintings.

If you’ll be in Sedona on Saturday June 17th come see me paint at the

To date this year I’ve painted 333 oil paintings. That’s more that twice I did last year. One of my favorites is the on the bottom left in this photo.

When I lived and worked in Florence, Italy I painted like this. Like a possessed fiend.  It feels great to work so much and know that people want my artworks.

These are going to Carré d’Artistes Sedona gallery. I hope they get there for black Friday.
