After so many years of working with watercolors, I've come to approach oils with the same direct approach--each brushstroke trying to unite hue, value and form.
Thank you--I really appreciate all of you taking the time to write! The bowl of fruit is now withered and gone, and all that remains is the painting...
Your compositions are always so striking and original. I love the vibrancy that you get with your colors too. I'd like to hear more about the comparison between watercolors and oils.

My visual journal is inspired by what I see every day: the weather on my hill in northern Vermont, 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. "Journal" paintings are fast, improvised daily entries, a chance to experiment with new approaches and pay attention to the here-and-now. When I’m traveling, quickly recorded impressions are posted from Paris, Provence, Spain, Maine and anywhere else I’ll find myself this year. My large studio compositions take time, planning, refining of the original inspiration. I'll also be sharing that different kind of creative process with you here on "A Painter's Year".

These peach paintings are absolutely scrumptuos. They make my mouth water. I don't know how you do it but your work is always so lively and inviting!
I like it!!
I agree with Nancy! Beautiful work!
Luscious, bold, bright colors and a beautiful composition - what more could you ask for, whether it's watercolor, acrylic or oils?
