This is part of my beach series of paintings. Love the umbrellas as always and this solitary umbrella on an open, quiet beach spoke to me. Missing my beach. Will need to go soon.  #contemporaryart #beachseries #oilpaintings

Have so enjoyed painting my beach series. I took some inspiring pics this summer on South Padre Island, and I have a bunch from my trip to the Mayan Riviera. I try to capture the evocative spirit of these exotic regions so we can remember the magic right here at home.

So excited our annual exhibit at Old Bakery and Emporium is right around the corner. I'll be exhibiting my beach series which is a joy to paint as it takes me to my favorite places.

Donated to the Arthouse at Jones Center

This is the third in my series of 5x7" beach paintings from my time at South Padre last summer. This is actually a scene from the hot tub area next to the pool at the condo we've been going to for decades - but you get the idea. You can catch these paintings at Arthouse at the Jones Center at 7th and Congress, and soon they will travel to Dallas and Houston this summer if not sold here. So happy to be a part of this great event!! The exhibit is up in Austin through June 12. Highly recommend it.
