My visual journal is inspired by what I see every day: the weather on my hill, what’s growing in my garden, a curio brought back from travels or an ordinary object from the kitchen shelf made special by careful looking. When I’m traveling, little studies are posted from Paris, Provence, Maine and anywhere else I’ll find myself this year. The "memory" paintings revisit favorite places in imagination.
The small paintings here in my visual journal are improvised daily entries, a chance to look again at familiar subjects and experiment with new approaches, to quickly record impressions and revisit favorite motifs.
My large studio compositions take time, planning, repeated refining of the original inspiration. I'll also be sharing that different kind of creative process with you here on "A Painter's Year".

It's been a beautiful autumn and I'm happy you've been putting it to such good use. Take no prisoners! Good solid stuff.
I'm going to remember that "take no prisoners" comment when I'm out painting in the future, David. Thank you!
